I use rat traps, and screw the trap to a piece of 1x4 so if something gets in there that I wasn’t necessarily targeting such as a chipmunk the...
I hadn’t heard that they shut down, but I left my Fahrenheit furnace behind when I sold the house 4.5 years ago so haven’t been keeping up. Guess...
I've gotten a few loads from a local tree service who has done work for me in the past. He'll call or shoot me a text if he's working in the area...
I’m down US23 southeast of Cheboygan, about 45 minutes from Mackinaw City. We run up to Mackinaw every now and again once tourist season is done....
Just stumbled across this thread. Here are a few pics from over the years. Nothing terribly current. It’s Michigan, it’s winter, and the sun won’t...
Being known as the ‘neighborhood prepper’ doesn’t bug me. All people really see is my wood stacks, which apparently is enough. There are two...
I’m known as the ‘neighborhood prepper’, even though I don’t consider myself a prepper, I am the most prepared in this little neighborhood. Not...
I burned some cherry pits years back. Think I paid $4 for a 40 pound bag. Had to try them, and I’m in Michigan so I figured if they worked out I...
I stumbled across the Well Connect company in the magazine that the local electric co-op sends out. I was a bit skeptical, but they provided a lot...
I’ve had a lot of trees dropped at my house over the past few years and got to know the owner of the tree service fairly well. He knows the wood...
Don’t necessarily mean to revive a two month old thread, but its somewhat relevant. Summer got away from me once again and I’ve been gone for a...
Add me to the list please.
I haven’t been on here much lately. Life got in the way, but I saw Pallet Pete’s post on Facebook earlier today. I never had the privilege of...
Not a whole lot here in the NE corner of the lower peninsula either. It’s all my fault - bought a John Deere 316 with a snowblower last fall. Used...
I’ve burned both red and white pine as those are the majority of trees on my property. Red seems to burn longer and takes longer to season. White...
I got into a semi-heated discussion with a younger coworker a year or so back. He has a wood burning fireplace insert and burns green wood so he...
I forgot all about party balls. Probably killed those brain cells from drinking out of them.
Meister Brau was my go-to college beer. If I remember, it was around $10 out the door, with $2.40 of that being MI bottle deposit. Blatz and Hamms...
I had a Geospring hybrid water heater at my old house. Had one issue where something took a dump in the electronics within the first year, but it...
That settles it. Time to go to Canada, sell my firewood and retire. Any hints on how I can cross the border with a truck and trailer loaded with...
