Honey Locust?

I lean more toward honey locust or is it possible mulberry, maybe white mulberry.

 

either way if the tree has thorns it will keep you warm on a cold night.

 

Well then you know exactly what that means. I have yet to truly burn it. The bark I have burned in just an outdoor fire. The heat is UNREAL.

 

it will keep the woman happy to on a cold night as well if you got one.

 

Got 3 if I am counting my daughter, my woman and my 4 legged sweetie!!!

 

happy wife happy life.

 

Gotta put a ring on her first, Im just in the starting stages. Heh enough said.

 

sounds like a plan.

 

damm man, same thing happened to me today! Got jabbed in the thumb, and later this evening I was wondering why my thumb hurt so much...good and swollen too!

 

Wrong leaves for White Mulberry, and definitely not regular ol Mulberry...I have a ton of that already in my stacks (love it!). I'll split one of these mystery wood rounds in the morning and post it up.

 

Its not a great feeling brother. I know that pain. We just work through it don't we? My neighbor said he took himself to the ER for the swollen finger he persevered through. You're among the ranks who understood such pain and mean business.

 

Yeah, leaves look like black locust, not honey locust. The bark too, definitely not honey locust.

 

Looks like Black Locust

 

Fresh split from yesterday's scrounge:

 

Still don't think it is black locust but it'll make heat.

 

A quick Google of "young black locust tree" yields these photos...both look like what I have here, so I'm sufficiently convinced.

 

Must be different than what we have around here which is always possible. But the long and short of it is "you're sufficiently convinced" burn baby burn !!!!!

 

I think I would invest in a machete if those trees were found in my neck of the woods to whack those suckers off with!
