    Hello Morgans! Love your content. I am 89 years old and grew up on a farm in South Carolina. We had a sawmill and two strong mules to pull the logs to the sawmill. My job at the mill was to stack the slabs. Love the clearing that you have done. We always called it new ground. If my dad and Grand Father would have the equipment that you have, no trees would have been left. They always wanted to plant more crops. I am a retired minister of 60 years and a proud VET.

    "Maybe its a hybrid". Haha. Back in the 70's my dad worked with a guy that bought a VW bug for fuel efficiency. The guys at the office started secretly adding fuel to his car. The guy "couldn't believe how fuel efficient the car was" and would brag often about his amazing car. Then they started syphoning fuel out, the guy would come in scratching his head wondering why his fuel efficiency was so terrible. This went on for months. Ah, the good ole days.

    Mike, when I rented an excavator to clear some land, I would grab the trees at one end, then rotate the tracks in the direction I want it to go and drag the trees that way. It seems like that would be a more efficient and possibly even easier way to do it than use the avant as a skid.

    I realise that you really only keep the good wood, but Man the amount of firepit stuff you are burning is unbelievable, yes the amount of time and effort that it takes to cut and split all the rubbish is a pain, but seriously in my house, from October to the middle of March, having no decent wood to burn on the wood burner and firepit, we survived on all of the rubbish I had collected over the projects done the previous couple of years, I get it Mike, the amount of time that you would need to put in to salvage all that wood is time consuming and yes you do have a shed load of trees, but it was really worth the time and effort here in the UK. Another great video Boss.

    For the invasive grass,could you do what we sometimes do here in Texas, which is bring in a contractor with a machine that breaks up the ground and has a flame generator behind it to burn the grass and the seeds, then till the soil again and run across it from a perpendicular path? We do that with bahia grass which will sprout between an 8:bed of recycled roadbed concrete. That's the only way I've found to kill off acres of it at a time. Even when deep tilling and cultivating then planting a hybrid haay seed, or sprigging it, the bahia finds a way to come back. Haven't seen that happen after the till and power flame approach, which is not the same as simply burning the field.

I thought a storm or other occurrence had caused it and the power company would take care of it. I went back to sleep. Little did I know I was the victim of an attempted burglary. These brainiac's had removed my power meter from the side of my house and thrown it on the ground!! Then proceeded to cut the padlock to my shop and raised the garage door. The battery backup took care of the motion sensors and the siren and I guess they left. Nothing was missing and I figure Simply safe saved me 10 to 20 thousand dollars!!!! Thanks Simply Safe!!!!!!!

    Good morning everyone!! Yukon has crossed the 🌈 bridge. Thanks for all the kind & thoughtful comments. Y’all are phenomenal.
    Mike how long before you own a avant- machine 😂. It sure makes fast work. Glad to see the amount of progress you’re making. Looking forward to seeing what the twist is tomorrow.
    Until then…
    Have a day!
    HELLOOOO Hunter 😊

    On that sketchy oak, I've seen a couple of good comments on it here, can I add that a line in the tree and a pull from a safe distance would work well. I've had great luck with using lines. The excavator could certainly be used in conjunction with a line to hold it until you can get out from underneath to a safe place from which to pull. Never underestimate a mature tree's ability to find something to drop on you.
