Oak-zilla
This beast of a black oak log was already on the ground when we purchased the property. Apparently the tree was not healthy, mostly dead and very close to the highway. After cutting it down, and hauling off the limbs, I guess they became bored, tired or lazy and rolled the 20 foot log back from the highway and left it. Thanks INDOT. Not.
From 2014 to April 2021, whenever I would walk around the property, would eventually find myself looking at this monster, wondering how the hell I would ever get rid of it.
It turned out to be very easy. When Kenny was nearly done piling up stumps, logs and limbs, he stopped his excavator to ask if I wanted him to haul off “Oak-zilla”. I said – YES please ! He replied saying it would need to be cut into shorter lengths for him to load onto a truck. Called my close friend Joe, asking if he had a chainsaw with a long bar/chain. He arrived shortly after my call and went to work.
