    Hi folks ,nice to check in . Been awhile I have gone back to work and it's night work so my scrounging and hoarding has been pretty limited to say the least. Well today I managed a score at the township brush drop off. Not sure what it is it's kinda stringy when I split it but don't have the charateristics of elm so I am stumped(pun intended). Thanks for the help.

    Wasn't a whole heck of a lot but I grabbed what was there along with a few pieces of red oak and some pretty decent sized maple rounds. I swear every time I go there it's something different but hey,it all adds up to BTU's.
