    Right where I want to be.
    Yep, rotti's right.
    This year, I got a bunch of small loads from my SIL's place.
    I think it'll total almost 3 cords.

    Great move on stocking up before getting the stove. We did that this year so we're in excellent shape for next winter. My father in laws stack saved us this winter but I started stocking up in March when we bought the house with no stove and are up to about 5 cords of future wood now.

    Great decision that will pay off next winter!
