Ginger and Lanie at Mammoth Spring, Arkansas — Spring Break 2013 – Day 1 Drive to Cheaha Mountain State Park, Alabama. No backpacking for us this Spring Break – we’ve got a family wedding in Florida to go to, which is going to involve lots of driving. If we’re lucky we’ll get a chance to do some hiking in Florida.

Cutting wood with Tom (365:337) – We’re going to have to come back and finish cutting up the log we’re sitting on.

Logging (365:332) – I spent the day in the woods pretending to be a lumberjack. I volunteered to give Loyal a hand today, and a jolly cold day it turned out too. Loyal felled a few trees, they were cut into logs and we dragged them then out of the way with the tractor and chains. This went on until Loyal ran over a small sapling, which got caught up in the tractor, cutting the tractor’s hydraulic hose and damaging the radiator.
