Over the last two days, my wife and I loaded four +22" inch  diameter X 15' green pine logs by way of the parbulking method.  It was 95 when we finished this morning and over a 100 yesterday.   I must be tougher (or dumber) than I thought.  LOL Btw, that my wife's Kindle at the base of the log. br>

Nice logs!

Parbuckling works very well, just take it easy 'cause the heat will get you!

It's nice to have the wife to help. Nothing against my wife,but if she helping I have to watch out for her.  ;D

Actually Jake, as hot as it is, the thought of dropping this trailer off at your place on the way to Florida did cross my mind.  LOL
