What a very interesting series of albums! Believe it or not, as a girl we used an old belt saw with a huge round blade (about 3 ft. in diameter) to cut our firewood. The 6 inch wide belt was hooked around the rear axel of an old, undriveable car with the rear end supported on blocks. Sure made fast work of the huge stacks of slab wood left on the property by previous logging operations through our forests. We also used an old style hand pump to draw our water from a 24 ft deep well. In hindsight, it's noteworthy that this was located just 30 miles out of Washington, D.C. in the 1960's. Those forests are long gone to make way for crowded housing developments and shopping malls. Sigh... Charlotte, now in El Paso, TX where overdevelopment is threatening to expend the last vestiges of the one paved "country road" still in the area.
