Song of the Week: Hard Hat & A Hammer by Alan Jackson
A little over a month ago Camp Yona rented a chipper to clean up the property. It was quite an adventure. Here's our story ....
When the loggers came through a couple of months ago, they left a little bit of a mess behind. We finally decided it was time to clean up our roads. The photo above is the "before" shot.
The first step in the clean up process is to use the chain saw and clippers to free any trees which are still attached. The trees are then dragged out the woods and stacked in neat piles lining the side of the roads.
The previous step can also often involve swinging from vines like Tarzan. Yes, it is completely necessary.
We then drove the chipper down each road and tossed the stacks of trees in. He can eat little trees, as well as ....
really big trees.
We are then left with huge piles of shavings which can be spread on trails and campsites.
And our roads are once again nice and pretty.
Please note that should you choose to attempt a chipping operation in the heat of a Georgian summer, it is quite possible that at least one, if not all, members of your team will sustain injuries. It's a hard job, but someone's got to do it.
