While walking the dog yesterday I spotted a tree service truck. They were from a town about 30 miles away. I asked if they were going to need someplace local to dump wood. I ended up with some nice straight white pine which looks like it will split nicely, although I may end up burning the county down. I told them anytime they need to unload wood to feel free to dump it here. Sledge included in pic for scale.
Nice score. Great logs! Gotta love knot free! Can you take an unlimited amount of wood? They can fill a yard up fast!
I had about 1.5 cord of ash delivered from right across the street, last year. I heard the saws running, so off I went and asked. Made me happy.
If you dont ask you dont get. Pine is my shoulder season wood, mixed with some maple. I need fires that go out quick this time of year or else it gets too hot in the house.
No problem finding spots to store it, so I could fill the yard. There would be loud cries of protest from my lovely bride though so I don't. If she only knew how much is stashed out of sight about the property...
How much??? Inquiring FHC minds wanna know??? Hide & seek stacks. I do that here as well. Sort of on the "blind side" of the house although she has a nice view of this stack behind the house. Ms. buZZsaw on the bedroom deck having a smoke!
Put some shakes on that and nobody would know it was there! The other day I figured between 8 and 10 cord.
