And the top had broken off sometime in the last couple of years, before I bought the house.
It was close to my house and when the wind kicks up, it blows from that direction.
So we hooked it up with ropes, straps, and come-alongs. Then we spent a lot of time looking it over and making sure it couldn't go wrong.
It went just as we planned. It's gone.
There was a lot more rot in it than I thought. But still a lot of good firewood.
I have another dozen or so rounds down the hill behind my house.
Glad I cut it now, not only because it could have fallen on my house, but because the wood is still good enough to make good firewood.
