    those nice old houses are being torn down regularly so they can build new giant houses 2 weeks ago they clear cut a lot about 200 yards from this spot and the house is coming down soon ( i got 14 logs from there though, why through it out )but it is a shame loosing all these homes:(

    That's sad! they do that out here too. They tear out neat old buildings and put in a strip mall that they can't keep rented out. WTH? :hair:

    What they chip almost makes one want to cry. It was costly sure enough but all the machinery that was required is the reason.

    yeah dont tell me its cheaper to have an 18" drum chipper and chip truck than making a few phone calls and dropping off some wood to scroungers. Use that sweet grapple to dump that right in my yard please :thumbs:. thats a bummer but, as said above, its about the bottom line not firewood for people. Oh yeah nice pics and you suck :p
