From my ringside seat, I planned to snap close-up photos as the guys from Olympic Tree carefully delimbed, and finally dropped this thirty-five foot tall pine tree. I turned my back for a moment, sensed movement behind me, and then realized how old school my logging paradigm is.

Contrast this to the worker bees who descend on Mark Queijo’s property every year. Well intentioned, and a larger work force, but soooo slow.

Yet another CO2 emitter to eliminate the CO2 absorbers.
