What did you not cut today?

I carried/used five different knives at various points of the day. Two of them just wanted to spend quality time with me and not cut anything.
 
How did a rock get inside the tree I wonder. I could fathom bullets in a tree...

Sometimes people put them in the crooks of trees, because they like decorating things for no actual reason, in between stacking rocks on trails, because they just can't leave anything alone. Most times the tree just picks them up when they grow up around it. Even if there's a rock inside a tree you're unlikely to hit it with the saw, but it's something anyone experienced with a chainsaw or trained by someone experienced with a chainsaw is wary of. It's not just bad for the chain, because of the dangers of the saw kickback after you make your unexpected discovery of tree treasure.
 
can't leave anything alone

I'm guilty of this too, except in my case it usually just means tree limbs cut off and tossed off the trail into the brush... I'm 6'5" so trails often need a bit more headroom for me.

The best part of being tall on the trails, is even if a bunch of people have been on it before you that the morning or you're in the back of the group, you're still eating cobwebs.
