Default tree pulling + bald MTs + 2wd = fail

Had all kinds of fun at Zach's farm . . . stayed the night, BBQ, shot all kinds of skeet . . . little fire . . . lots of fun.

Here's one of the trees that I was yanking on. 4wd was too easy, but I tried it in 2wd and there wasn't much action

2wd is great in the winter. Especially, when your city snow plows don't snow plow. They more like "pack down." Lol

chain saw was stuck. He under cutted it and it still rolled enough to pin the saw.

Thanks ! I hit 3rd gear, and the trans temp moved off of 100* so I quit messing with it.
