Jon Aschenbach Cutting Firewood

I've been heating my house with wood for the past 5 years. I love having wood heat and I have been very fortunate to be able to acquire wood for free or nearly free. The picture at the left is me at my tree farm last Sunday, using a Husqvarna 181 chainsaw. The 181 is over 20 years old, but has tons of power. It cut through the red alder logs with ease.

Several people have been asking me about the TruPulse laser rangefinders lately. The TruPulse is a great instrument for taking offset GPS shots. A friend of mine borrowed my TruPulse 360B and teamed it up with his MobileMapper 6 and ArcPad. He used the equipment to plot the location of some type of lily that grows in lakes. The TruPulse worked perfectly and hopefully, I can put together another video covering the use of the TruPulse and ArcPad for mapping non-native weed species in lakes.

All for now. Jon
