So the name of this blog is a little different than some so i'm going to give a little explanations of just why I chose this name.  Many of my friends know I enjoy farming, trucks, and hard work so that is where the work boots part comes from.  I wear work boots more than any other shoe and actually my work boots are the most expensive shoe I own. I don't mind wearing other shoes its just that when you work around equipment, livestock, and things like that its not really safe to wear tennis shoes cause they don't offer a lot of protection. That is where the work boot part of the title came from.  Now onto the chainsaws part.  My dad and uncle both work for landscape companies in the Manhattan area and when the ground freezes they can't really work since they can't dig holes, they both say they get to play in the dirt for jobs but their toys have just gotten bigger, anyway they have a lot of spare time in the winter.  When my family moved to Riley eight years ago or so the house we bought had a fireplace and small propane stove for heat and very little insulation.  We had to cut wood to keep the house warm so what better for two landscapers with nothing to do.  We since removed the propane stove and put in another wood stove, so are house is completely heated by wood, and my uncle bought a house with a wood stove so we get to cut more wood!  We might go a little overboard sometimes when we cut and we may have as many as four to six chainsaws going at a time and half a dozen trucks and trailers. We cut a lot of wood and enjoy doing it, if we burned all the wood we have I think we could probably burn for a couple years without a problem.  So that is where the chainsaws part of my title comes from.  Now I may post about other stuff but the majority of my posts I imagine will have to do with some type of farm work, firewood cutting, or what I'm building in shop class.
