Tree Hugging



Some old loggers asked if we'd be interested in having them chop a few maples in our back woods and we agreed to one load, and they've cut a wider path for us, taking out some saplings for their skid all the way back to the river. Although it initially looks like lots of devastation, it opens up the canopy, dries up the forest floor and allows for smaller things to grow.
