    This was mine, back then most of our firewood was cherry from storms that put down a chit load of cherry.

    Cherry Stacked Today

    We did have some nice sugar maple for the colder months along with the pellet stove so it wasn't that bad.

    I hung around for a few weeks before officially joining, then just added a comment here or there for the next few weeks. I believe this was the first score I actually shared:
    These wood prices are Highway Robbery!

    As far as I can tell this was my first post.
    For the life of me I can’t remember who this woman was with a propane furnace. Not a dang clue :) she must be miffed by now.

    Cleaning propane furnace?

    The post was
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Decided to start breaking down a collection of logs/branches I got from my sister-in-law. Mix of oak, sassafras, and black birch.
    Cutting/splitting/stacking for the heating season 2017-2018. About 1.5 cord worth. Getting ready for the Pats/Rams game in a bit.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Somewhere in - Work or play this weekend?

    I had joined earlier that day

    I remembered what my post was about and searched for it. I lucked out with a good keyword search.

    I’ll give it a shot for others with a memory like mine.

    Go to profile page. Click on postings. Click on find all threads. Go to last page available, highest number. At the bottom above the yellow bar you may see a small message “Find older messages/threads. Click on that and it’ll take you back even further. Writing this by memory ;)

    There’s also an option to find all posts. That doesn’t seem to work very well.
    Everyone’s mileage may vary. I think the forum software has had a few hiccups over the years that may have scrambled some of its memory banks.

    Earlier I hit "find older posts" after going to page 10 about 10 times and quit. Hoping there is/was an easier way.

    When I ran yours I found no earlier posts. I assume that happened to you to?

    What a cool thread idea thewoodlands !!

    Mine was from September of 2020. Steel Floor

    I think I'd been actively reading for a few weeks, but had been aware of and on the site since 2019. We started hoarding July 27, 2019, and it was shortly after I wanted to start learning about CSS cordwood.

    Mat60 commented. Haven't seen him here for a bit!

    Inquiring minds want to know Backwoods Savage was your first post with MS dos, Morse code, stone tablets or hieroglyphs? I had to rule out smoke signals as you have such well seasoned wood.
