    Nice looking pictures Dave! You hire good helpers there also. :) If you didn't heat with wood where your at, what would your alternatives be? Is there natural gas where your at?

    Always enjoy your pics Dave. Looks like your in good shape and pretty soon your little helpers will be big helpers and you can deliver the lemonade while they fill the sheds up.

    Yea, got NG here in 1985, Installed NG furnace & went away from wood, NG was cheap. Price increases & retirement drove me back to wood.
    NG furnace kicks on this time of the year when I get lazy.

    Big 4 here :Electric, NG, Propane, heating oil .
    NG in SE Alaska , Pipeline stops not far North of Wasilla (politics / government is the main reason)

    Great pictures Dave. Can't help but notice not much snow left on the mountains. Seems a bit early for that but maybe not.

    I like the way you finish the top of the rows in the shed.

    Thanks,
    Wife made & laminated those so I'd know what wood was for what burn season.
    Hard to remember yesterday let alone 2 or 3 years form now :confused:
