Not the first time this has happened but not normal for December . Tornado passed between where I turn off the county road and my house. Note that a 5 mile stretch that is marked jeep trail on top of maps and most people take an hour to go those 5 miles . Normal for me is 25 to 30 mins but then I have been driving it for 20 years. I stop counting trees cut out tonight at 20 but can say there were less than 30 of them to clear. Most were in a 2 mile area. Now I normally carry a a chainsaw w/ gas mix,oil, a spare chain ,2 axes , 2 machetes , a rope and a shovel . Tonight I needed the the saw , the spare chain , filled the fuel tank twice, 1 axe and a spare Handel bar mount for the saw. The normal 25 /30 drive was 3 and a half hours long.
The worst I ever had to cut out on this road took 18 man hours to clear. But I do like my peace and quite.
