"We are going to talk about how to prepare firewood. This is presented by Black Dog Video. You can see Black Dog Video on blackdogvideo.biz. What I am going to do now is drop this one down, it’s kind of high I don’t like reaching up. I don’t like reaching up above this level to cut, so I am going to cut it here and we can cut it up once it is down on the ground. So I am going to see what kind of branches are here and here is that small one I want to get out of the way before I drop this one on it. It does not look like the tree is going to rotate when I drop this one but I am going to make sure I am well out of the way."
