John,

How cool it is that your dad still likes to saw with you.  Hope we all can do as well when we're 85.  Also like your saw gear hauling Farmall.
Chain saw winters might have had a hand in my having to break down and buy the geezer gear called hearing aids
a couple of weeks ago.  Shirlee had been hinting around that I needed them for months and I finally gave in.  Pricey little
boogers.

I got the saw in position and let him have at it till it got pretty low to the ground, then I took over. My son is on the little end. The saw is a 2 cylinder Titan Blue Streak. It runs 1 pt of 50w oil to the gallon of gas and uses a 5/16” file to sharpen the chain. We ran 2 of these, a 52 Poulan, and a big Mall with around a 40” bar. The others have 33” bars. This is the first time any were ran in 8 years.
