work day at the farm yesterday, workin' on our campsite, outhouse, burnin' sticks & brush, also had a big red oak that died so we cut it down, caught it fallin' on camera, you can hear my buddies daughter screaming.

Huntrz..if that red oak is solid....you might be able to talk critter into runnin it through the portable sawmill this winter if you wanted the lumber out of it...I'm not sure what he's going to charge per board foot this winter..but it's a thought. Also you might be able to sell it to the sawmill here..I think he's still buying decent red oak logs...
