    The wife and I went out back and started stacking the few cord on the ground before the GTG on May 30th. It's a mess back there.....

    It was a beautiful day here in Northeast Ohio. About 60° and a little sun!! :D

    We can do one rack (5/8 cord) in less than 30 minutes while BS'ing and taking a break to have a drink ;)

    Way to go! My wife always helps out when I am out there also and it makes things go so much faster. I want to get to splitting all the wood I cut so bad but my sciatica has flared up big time this week and it sucks.

    That's great! She's a keeper.
    Wifey was very concerned a couple of weeks ago, thinking we were "out of wood!" The horror!
    She didn't think it was funny when I burst out laughing. Last weekend I took her out for a walk around the back yard, and showed her all of the deadwood we'd bucked and left laying last fall. Tuesday I took the utv and the lawnmower trailer around and gathered most of it up. When she woke up (night shift) we stacked a little on the front porch. Being as its in the 60s, now, I think we'll make it,
