Brothers Tommy & Julian Cutting up a Tree


Wait! I still have plenty of slides to go. I just took a slide break.

I don’t normally copy pictures onto slides. The color balance never works out when compared to the original. But sometimes, you got to use what you have at the moment.

These two young men are of my two late brother-in-laws, Anna’s brothers, Tommy (1935 – 1988) and Julian (1937 – 1999). Tommy is standing and Julian is with the chain-saw. They worked hard and they played hard.

Look at the size of that chain-saw. That chain-saw is big enough, if Tommy or Julian was playing Crocodile Dundee and was walking down the streets of New York City and some street thugs threatened them with a chain-saw, he could say, “That is not a chain-saw”, then pulled out this monster of a chain-saw from out of his jacket and pull the cord and start it with the engine blasting and say, “this is a chain-saw” – and watch the thugs run away in fright.
