Well it wasn't so much the cutting down of the tree but the then cutting it into 30 pieces so you can move the damn thing...that's then like cutting down 31 trees (per tree). I did about 40/50 like that as I had to cut a path to the back of the property where I was going to have an old trailer placed as a storage/workshop.
After I cut them up and was wondering what to do with the fucking pile of logs, some rednecks knocked on my door and asked if they could have all the logs...(which I assumed they were going to cut up for firewood). I said "sure but you gotta take the big ones first...not cherry picking the small ones..."ok" they said.
Of course they then took all the small ones and left the 200lb big ones...

Harbor Freight sells a motorized chain saw chain sharpener for only $29.99. That is barely over the cost of a new chain. I've never used one but am considering buying one some day if I ever need to buy a new chain.
Description
Quickly and easily sharpen saw chains with this versatile Electric Chain Saw Sharpener. The built-in chain vise adjusts to all chain designs and pitches to give you a precise, accurate angle of cut every time. Chain rotation rollers move the links forward while the vise stays in position to save you time. The convenient vise handle lets you adjust vise tension without removing your hand from the grinder.
•Chain vise adjusts to all chain designs and pitches
•Table vise angle of 35° to the right or left
•Includes 4-1/4 in. x 1/8 in. grinding wheel with 7/8 in. arbor
•Mounts to bench, wall or vise

I'm starting to appreciate the southern PC. In the north it's too purposefully done. At least in the South you are more likely to know how one truly feels.
