Storm ended mid morning here so i opted to get some splitting done at storage. Less than 2" of snow made for slower going but the crisp air couldnt be beat. Maybe couple face cords of black locust. Birch Also a bit of walnut and red maple. At least a cord overall. May get more done in the next few days.
I'd love to get out and split some wood for an hour or two, but all my rounds are frozen under 6" of ice and corn snow. Hopefully things will thaw out this weekend and I can spend some time outdoors. If I don't get enough exercise, I can't sleep, which is why I've been up since 2am.
It was in the mid 30's and surprisingly all i had was a pull over sweatshirt on. Cold lover here, especially if making firewood in in I like a decent amount of work during the day and ill sleep better. Yeah 6" is a bit much. Hopefully it thaws for you and you can
Won't be long before I get the itch and get after my mountain of rounds. Definitely going to have to warm up a little first. I had 5 degrees on the mercury this morning! So out of curiosity, what temp was this crisp air you speak of?
Id say it was low 30's when i started after 1. The little puddle next to the splitter had frozen over later in the afternoon. We had rain change over to snow so it was extra sloppy there. 10* here now The BL was ten months old and its unheard of for me to have rounds that long. I ran out of stacking room at storage at the time. I have maybe seven cords to split yet let alone what i have in scrounges up my sleeve.
Thats in Eric Wanderweg's area. I try not to scrounge in other hoarders areas. After all i stake my territory here!
Another problem solved. You want to stake your territory I just provided the stakes LOL c’mon man Did see some decent scores in Eric’s area. You still scrounging Eric?
Eric has been going to the WHA meetings. First Wednesday every month! "Hi my name is Eric and im a wood hoarder"
Actually have my eye on a HUGE score off of River Road in Middletown. I don’t scrounge much up where I live
Huge? No species? I smell locust LOL Thinking about getting to your WHA meeting a little early and sprinkling sawdust on the floor just to watch everyone twitch A little old but still listed.
