    I think it burns hotter than pine...unless you get some extra sappy pine...or fatwood.

    They make some really cool cookies too Dave. With logs that size you can get some big ones. A little retirement side business maybe??? IMG_3722.JPG IMG_3721.JPG

    Eastern red cedar should had it cut up into lumber. The red will last a long time for outside projects. There's poles down the creek from me that a marina put in 50 years ago and the still there today.

    I believe its red cedar. Love burning it in my fireplace. Burns hot with bright flames and pops like crazy.

    I'd never go get cedar for firewood. But I had a big western red cedar cut down last month and I'll be burning a bunch of it next season. Even after giving away as much as I could, I have over a cord of it stacked up.
