Another Hang-up

With The Fuzz's Sweetie out of town, and Young Daughter visiting friends, The Fuzz was left to puppy sit. He also had to deal with a shrinking wood pile. He had already found a dead tree nearby, so he figured this was a good time to go get it.
Naturally, there was a hang-up. As can be seen here, the top of the tree he was cutting (A) hung up on one of it's neighbors (B).
After a number of unsuccessful attempts to rock the thing loose, he finally gave up on that.
All his help was gone, so he had to be a bit creative. He went and got out that old faithful Come-a-long. One end was fastened to that uncooperative tree, the other to another one. The it was only a matter of carefully pulling tree A to the side until it's topmost branches finally broke free.
And as they say, It's hard to argue with success!
