I am Woman, Hear Me Roar (with a chainsaw)

I walked out to the backyard and saw that the wind took down the dead section of the plum tree that I had planned on the guys helping me take care of. I got out the chainsaw and went to work removing the dead part and a living section too damaged to save. MUCH more work to do but I will pace myself. Now I'm really glad I bought not just the pole chainsaw, but also a small hand held, battery powered saw. The main section that broke off was pretty big so I'll have some really nice wood for the fireplace, this Winter.

Goggles are important. Also frequent chain saw cleaning.
