Tom and Barry Clear Family Property of Brush

Monday August 11, 2025 Guerneville CA.

I drove on over and crossed the river to a piece of our family property we are planning on selling. Tom and Barry are working on getting some of the forest cleared of brush so I thought I’d check out what they were doing.

I found Barry gassing up his chainsaw.barry1

Barry was helping Tom clear some of the forest, when he needed help with the chainsaw.barry2

Most of the time Barry could just take it easy.barry3

Until Tom needed some stuff trimmed with the chainsaw.barry4

Tom’s tractor was doing most of the work.tom5

Barry takes a break when he can.barry6

The brush is pretty thick with lots of poison oak.brush7

They knocked a lot of brush back and are getting the job done.workers9

Eventually, I went back home and left them at it to get the job done.

Nice day.

Forest Visiting and Some Trail Cam Pictures

Sunday August 10, 2025 Guerneville CA.

Forest visiting

I rode my dirt bike up into the hills to do some visiting just so I wouldn’t be sitting around my yard all day. I went up to this guys place past his chicken house, but no one was home, not even his dog.house1

I parked here and got off the bike and shouted, Anyone home a few times but got no response.bike2

So, from there, I rode over to another neighbors which were home so I sat down and we had a nice visit for a couple of hours.yard3

From there, I rode over to this overlook and sat for a bit, enjoying the day.view4

From there, I rode on down to Two pools to check it out. The pools are holding water nicely, which is good.pool5

I took the long way down the hill to this old apple orchard.tree6

I picked a couple of apples and ate one of them and took off for home.apples7

Trail cam pictures

I collected the trail cam pictures the other day and finally got around to looking at them.
