Hi Shags, I moved this down here so folks can see it and reply.

I for one are almost finished my major trunk chops for the year, though this year I only have about 40 cord drying for next winter.

Soon It will be time to do some summer light pruning and assessing my little trees.

Matt, this is what we call summer... Today driving home the rain was mixed with little ice crystals, I called home earlier and had someone run outside to bring some of my trees indoors because it was so cool.

Its been an average of low to mid 80's here since June.
I've been a bit neglectful with what trees I have as for styling or pruning but other than that they all seem very healthy.

Come on down south to Bama, my car showed 98 - 104 F coming home from work at 5:00pm most everyday this month! By 6:00pm it is just cool enough for a bike ride.
I agree with shaggy, the form is slow, I was tempted to upload some lame pictures of trees I found just to get something started.

Have a Great Day and don't Yallllll overheat

Yep....it does indeed get and, has gotten a tad slow here during the summer.
Going to have to juice it up a bit with the vBSEO program, Google and Yahoo search engines when I get the particulars down pat.
Between this site and my other I'm barely enjoying the great summer days we are having here. I would LOVE to have one solid month without ever having to look at a damn monitor and typing at a keyboard!

It would have been nice to have had a small fire in the bedroom, but they are repointing the chimneys at-the-moment. Brrrrr. They say we could have a heat wave next week, in the upper 80's even.

At least I do not have Phil's addiction of creating web-sites...
