Clearing for the house / Carport and Wheelbarrow repair

We are planning on the car port being the next building so some trees are needing to be removed.
We are deciding to also clear for the house at the same time so we have a visual as to where it will go.

We are very careful when we "fell" a tree. They weigh tons and the tree always wins when they fall on you!

We had to plan which tree to get down first . One thing we are learning is it is VERY DIFFICULT if not impossible to get a tree to fall in a different direction than it is leaning, we have practiced on some and haven't had any successes.

We found this wheel/ platform and use it to move the cedar logs and utility poles. Someone built a 2X4 frame around an axle with wheels.

Some of the trees we cut were hollow with water and realize they probably would not have lived very much longer.

After the tree is down , we cut the limbs and truck into transportable sizes, thus the wood pile begins.

And then there is the wheel barrel repairs that need to take place before we can move the logs!

We filled the tires with Gorilla Snot (Glue) and are seeing if this will take care of the flat tires. A gallon cost about $25.00 and will fill about 6 tires.
