Icy Roads / Eisige Straßen

Howdy sir johannpiber!!! Sorry for the late reply, I was offline almost all day working outside. The tree is coming along, Mrs. J helped me move one big section of the trunk about 50 yards to a ravine today.

We used shovel handles to put underneath it and rolled it. It was dang hard work but the soil is wet down there and I didn't want to tear up the lawn by using our Jeep to pull it.

I still got one big section of a tree trunk to cut down. We have an old two man tree cutting saw that was here when we bought the place. We tried to cut that section of tree trunk down with that saw but it was an epic failure. lol..those things are HARD to use! We couldn't do it.

So since I am doing everything like the pioneers did, I'll be using a hatchet or axe. It's about 15 inches across so it's not gonna be easy. Did it ever snow yet there?

Good morning @janton 🙂

Seems like a hard work, maybe too hard for a gentleman redneck? Maybe the old Austrian country boy should come over the big pond and show you how to use such a big saw. If it is such one like I'm thinking of, we had one at home when I was young. I think it might be still there somewhere, but I don't believe I'm allowed to take it on the plane with me ;) lol

But first Justin has to do something that I can afford that flight 🙏🙂

Just try to take care of your back, my friend. I am glad that Mrs. J. helps you, because that way she can take care of you too.

No, it didn't snow yet, and I don't expect any snow to come in this winter anymore. Maybe it will snow sometime, but this snow will last only a day or two, because it is getting too warm outside and the spring is near. I am longing for the spring now, when everything grows and gets green again 🙂

I wish you a great day, my friend 🙂

I guess I should have looked on youtube to find a video of how to use that big saw! It was really funny trying to use it, someone would have been laughing hard at us! lol.

I'm pretty shocked at the warm weather but I was just reading that this winter is mild because of certain solar conditions and something about equinox. They said we were going to have the earliest spring in 124 years because of some kind of equinox cycle. So it should come soon.
Oh, and here's some tokens. !ENGAGE 50

I souldn't have replied so fast yesterday ... good morning my friend 🙂
In the morning it began to snow and it snowed almost the whole day long, but there was also rain and so there's only a bit of that white stuff left on some places.

Yes, I also think the spring will come earlier this year, and let's hope that at least we will have a nice spring when winter has not come.

Thanks a lot for the !ENGAGE 50


A hot morning !COFFEEA is very important for me to wake up from my !DERANGED dreams 😉

Oh it finally snowed! But it may be gone already which is kinda sad.
Hey I took a few photos of that tree, I had one more section to cut down and I did that this morning.

Now it's completely out of the way. We just have to roll that big section over to our ravine and the lawn will be ready to mow.

Hey, work done 👍 looks cool, thanks a lot for the photos, because now I can see what you meant by saying the tree was in your way :)
Do you swim in that pond in Summer or does it just belong to your property as decoration or so?


!ENGAGE 25
A !BEER has to be cold and a !COFFEEA has to be hot to taste good and not !DERANGED 😉

Howdy again sir johannpiber! Yeah that tree used to be high enough that I could drive under it and then it leaned way over and the end was resting on the ground.

The pond is undeveloped and in need of everything. lol..cleaning, landscaping, everything. That's in the plans for the property down the road a bit. We want to clean it up, thin out the trees around it, put alot of lights around it, put in a fountain, etc.

There's fish in there too. Too many snakes though, couldn't get me to swim in it!

Good morning @janton 🙂

That pond will look very good after you have put some work in it, but I know there's a lot more more work to do than cutting a tree ;)
I hope to see some photos of that certainly beautiful pont when it's finished ... if Steemit is still alive 😉

A hot morning !COFFEEA is very important for me to wake up, but later on a cold !BEER would be nice to have 😉

Howdy today sir johannpiber! And guess what today is? It's Friday! So you are one week closer to retirement! That calls for a beer. A few beers!

Yes, I will take photos of the progress but like you said, if steemit is still around! It will probably be a couple years before I get to that pond, we have a smaller one close to the house that we will fix up first. That is this one:
