Update. Everything is good. Cosmetic damage only. I'm new to the body piercing thing but a black locust tree thorn buried itself in my forehead and the road is now open. I HATE clearing storm damaged trees. They are unpredictable and some were snapped off 20 feet up. I was focused on the big dangers and a thumb diameter branch whipped me. My only neighbor on our 1 lane road who previously cleared the smaller stuff off to the south heard me running the saw and brought his tractor over to help. 2 loader tractors, several log chains and a chainsaw makes a big difference. I almost backed over my stihl and spotted it just in time. So I stuck it behind the seat and the hot saw melted a big hole thru the seat on my kubota. Like I said- cosmetic. Dragged some nice cherry logs up for firewood or maybe the saw mill. Oh yeah the power is on but now I am really going to get a proper transfer switch in for next time I need the gen. I've been married almost 25 years and this will be strange New Years just me and the dog but atleast I have power and only a small hole in my forehead and a bigger one in my tractor seat. And venison stew in the crockpot.
