Started sawing those big Ash logs. This is the smallest of the four. They're a pain to handle, have to drive the point of the canthook in with a hammer to get it to grab, they're too big to hook.
Quarter sawing them, the first boards come out of the middle, took three 1 1 1/4 boards 18 inches wide out.
These will yield a pair of book matched boards. They'll make beautiful table tops, the bigger logs should give 23 inch wide boards,to make 46 inch wide table tops in a couple of years.

Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.
