Somehow this stump seemed irrelevant a couple of months ago.
I couldn't see under the deck then. I jammed my hand and camera in to do a little recon.

Now that I pulled up the rotten crap that was that deck, the stump has become real to me.
The stump has rotten qualities around the edges. The large substantial part of the stump is in my way.I have made a few chainsaw cuts into it, but it will require more.
In the old days I could have thrown an old tire over it, poured in 10 lbs of charcoal, fired that up with a half gallon of gas and a few days later be done with it. Nowadays, I guess folks hate that black haze and rubbery smell.
