Turns out that if you are going to mill trees for lumber, you want to do it while they are green and let them try as boards. So we decided we better get our logs up to the saw mill.
I was catching heck for not wearing green on St. Patty's Day, so I went and got Jim's green tractor.
And drove it into the rectory to load up the tree we laid down this past December.
Still having the gooseneck around, Darin wheeled it in close.
One by one, we loaded them up.
Good load.
Then followed Darin up to the mill.
Buckingham's is our saw mill of choice.
Michael lined us out and left us to it.
Done.
They should get to them this month sometime. Not having a specific project in mind, I told him to cut out 12 2 x 8's and the rest 1 x 6's. Maybe we can turn them into some new sanctuary furniture. That'd be cool. Regardless, they'll likely need at least another year to dry after being milled. Time is on our side. Back to ranching.
