What's up today (bullchiting) thread.

Let me tell you, if it weren’t for our sons this would never have gotten done. I haven’t got the energy or will to do much anymore. I’ll supervise and help a bit, but I can’t do much more than a few minutes work at a time. I keep forgetting to tell myself you’re getting older you fool and you can’t do what you used to anymore. That and the arthritis took away all the fun.

Hope you’re doing well, Larry.

 

Travelled to the tree farm last night. It has been a beautiful day so far. Wife and I are heading to a nice restaurant in Owensboro to celebrate her 60th tonight.

could see our breathing this morning. Fall is approaching.

 

If you enjoy doing it and the wood is plentiful, why not make a few bucks? Are yo just out of room or getting lazy in your old age?

 

Yup, not willing to give up anymore real estate to store farwood...I only use 4 cords per year on average, and have 20+ here so...

 

I spent some time in the woods this afternoon cutting up some dead red oak. My son commes this coming weekend and he can muscle them out of the woods and to my wood splitting area. I hope to get more wood cut this week so he can be busy on Saturday. I gotta buy the beer.

 

Caffeine going in. We received a little rain last evening late. Looks like it will be another nice day here today. A high of 70 expected. Yesterday was very nice. Unfortunately I have been putting a little extra time in at the enjoyment center, but it helps the bank account. You firewood hoarders have some fun today and stay safe.

 

Nice! I haven’t been fortunate enough to meet any of you in person yet. Need screen names to go with picture.

 

Slide is up, it’s go time!

Yup, we are heading home in a few hours and start the same. Hopefully get 3 cord in and stacked this afternoon and tomorrow. By next Sunday hopefully all 8 are done. Seems to be a thing around here that Labor Day starts the fire wood migration.

 

Too bad that for many its the migration of "seasoned" wood right into the 2020/2021 stacks!

 

See so many that get wood in the summer dumped in a pile on the lawn, starting to put it up for the winter. Don’t even bother trying to say anything, that stuff is dry and burns great. Or it might become too dry and burn too hot. I cut a load last winter, got it hauled home after the roads in-posted and we could get a truck in to get it. I’ll start on that in a couple weeks and won’t see it for at least 2 more years, likely 3.

 

Hoping to get the garden organized today. Potatoes to harvest and peas. Squash are still looking good.
My weather sticker is waaaaay off. it was 13 C this morning, not 0 C
Everyone have a good day.

 

Myself the wife and 2 and 5 year old all chipped in to get it done in 2 days. The lazy lab always is under foot. Feels good to be ready!

 

Got bark?

 

Me and the wife will hopefully be half done tomorrow night. I like your lab. I miss our lazy black dog.
