    2 trips I made 2 foot side panels for my big trailer to double up the loads.

    Got me some Nashville money.

    Was 2 trips, and -25* we did it in one loooong day. Nothing like a 4 cords and 400 miles snow covered roads, haven’t seen the paint on the road since September. Only way to be a savage is work like one.

    $750 a cord and $150 per trip for delivery fee. My thump hurt really bad from pushing the button to dump the trailer. I think it took longer to open and close the rear doors than to dump.

    Still moving wood and got this section of the field empty minus one 2 cord pile of next years wood in the one corner. A beautiful sight to me!

    The log guy I got hooked up with last year has been hitting me up for a while to take logs. I finally said yes since I have the space and the ground is frozen again. He's brining 4 semi loads of what is supposed to be all oak between today and tomorrow. Will post pics when its all in and I get over there.

    Been a great Winter for frozen ground here.

    Just wishing the crusty snow and ice was gone as I got stuck in it yesterday! :emb:

    3 loads have come in with the last 4 now coming in some time today. Should have time to snap some pics this afternoon once I get done teaching and starting loading/delivering.

    My last pile of seasoned oak. Good thing there’s approximately 45-50 cords left in this pile. I’d imagine I sell maybe 10-15 more out of it before the calls stop coming in.
