Tree Cutting

We noticed that there was a very large dead tree at the back of our property this summer. It was actually on Karl Kalber's property, so I asked him if I could cut it down for the wood and he said "go for it". The night before Jeff and Elise left for Atlanta, Jeff suggested we go and try to cut it down. It took about 45 minutes of cutting with the chain saw, but it finally fell. It is a hickory and is so big in diameter, that I had to cut the wedge in three segments with my 16" saw and use the end first to make the final cut in the back. The video at the bottom shows it actually falling.
