    Hope all are doing well and healthy. Juts wanted to say howdy. Been busy at work to say the least and just recently jumped back on the forum. Been slow on firewood gathering this season but got a couple new tools that should help the cause. Totaled my 1/2ton Z71 late fall and was blessed to be able outright buy a year newer F350 FX4 with the insurance payout. Got lucky. We also got a new 35 hp Kioti tractor with a grapple so looking forward to felling some trees soon !!! Found an awesome deal on some IBC totes so gonna transition to that for wood storage now that we have the tractor.
    Here are a few pics , because I know everyone likes pics !!

    yeah , was a pretty crappy deal but definitely all my fault. Kids got the jeep stuck and my recovery ended with my truck sliding in to the pond. While running sooo…. Thankfully insurance said is was a legit claim tho.
