Thanks for the reminder DonT.When I was in high school,there were some young mentally handicapped kids that rode our bus,and were dropped off at their school on the way.
One weekend one of the young handicapped boys,went out with his Dad to cut firewood.They found them both dead,hours after they should have been home.An Alder tree crushed them both,but the Dad was found in a protective position over his son.
The bus was quiet on Monday morning,as everybody knew what had happened,and felt the loss.I often think of that Dad,and whether he was right or wrong to have his son with him,he laid his life down for his child.I admire him for that.
I wouldn't want any of my family near a tree that was being felled,except of course those I work with in the woods.
