  1. I do concur. And observe the softness I love in those eyes.

    1. I'm a lumberjack
      And I'm OK
      I sleep all night and I work all day
      I cut down trees
      I skip and jump
      I like to press wild flowers
      I put on women's' clothing and hang around in bars

  4. Knew a couple of babes that worked in forestry (shoulda capitalized BABES). They were (prob'ly still are) real Women.

  5. Maybe she's back at home doing the trimming while her man is doing what he does. Leads.

  6. Nah, not a logger, her leathers are not scuffed enough, her hard hats doesn't have the requisite dings and scrapes and her trousers don't have tears and patch marks, all taken together doesn't match the wear on that saw...

    1. Fresh outfit, or maybe she is just more careful?

  9. A little sawdust and some wear on those wedges would have helped the ad.
    Was going to say something about holding my bar but I best not.

  10. Face looks dirty from bar oil, and girls don't generally get muscle definition like guys do, even when they work hard. However, those gloves look odd. Plenty dirty, but knit cuffs?

  11. Had a tiny girl come to the house to give an estimate for tree trimming. Looked a lot like her, maybe shorter. She examined the tree from every angle and told me where she was going to cut and how and why and results for the work. Every time she told me she would be cutting here or there I nodded my head and thought, "sure".
    The usual tree trimming convoy showed up on sched and 3 big guys got out and started to deploy the jacks on the crane and laying out the gear there she was, with a chain saw about as tall as she was putting on the hard hat and the climbing rig and clearly the boss and stepped into the crane's lifting gear and went aloft to trim the tree. A remarkable day.
