The customer is residing the barn in the background of the photos.
The job scaled at 2600bf, and it took me almost 10 hours to wrap up, counting a lunch break. There were a lot of 1x12s and 1x10s, with a handful of 6 and 8" boards. I should have taken a picture of the mess, I almost needed him to pull the mill out with his tractor!

The customer sticked up the stack, on my suggestion. I didn't realize he did the two stacks that close together until they were 2/3 the way done the second one! at least it's better than dead stacked lumber. He plans to put up the siding in the fall.
You did good. I managed 1781 bf of mostly 1X12 SYP for siding yesterday in about 6 hours. I didn't get a picture, but any day sawing is a good day...... 8)
