When a rather large oak tree dies - and when he happens to do so in the middle of your yard - he leaves you with the inconvenient task of downsizing and relocation ... that is, chopping and hauling all that wood. Recently, this occured at the Four-Six-Double-O. Little did the oak tree know, however, but a team of lumberjacks reside at Cornerstone, waiting for just such an occasion to break out the logsplitters and let the axes fly. Well, maybe we didn't exactly know what we were getting into, but fortunately our zealous efforts only resulted in one trip to the hospital. Below are some photos from our woodchopping extravaganza.
Let the chopping begin - A wood "massacre."

The woodpile grows as the chopping continues.
Only one blow is needed for skilled lumberjacks.
