    34 and snowing in the south. It’s been snowing since 9am without accumulation. The ground has turned to slop so I have to use 4x4 to get the ricks out.
    Poplar popping with some slow burn white oak.
    Supposed to drop to 20 and I have some heavy duty white oak splits on standby.

    Just give it another 30-40 years. The cold actually "hurts" sometimes.

    Snowing (go figure) and some winds but more like a breeze moving the snow around a little. Looks like 2" so far.

    6 / 61 miscalculated my wood consumption last night and got up early (for me) and started again. Took the opportunity to take out a few shovels full of ash as it was getting a little too deep.

    Pine and mystery chunks and a nice slab of oak on top. Warming up nicely.
