    :thumbs::thumbs:Took my daughter to dance today. 12 miles. Found 2 scrounge piles! These are the good ones. Where the homeowner pays the tree guys to come drop a tree or trim it and brings the wood chipper but piles the big stuff around the tree. Yep, I'm Hittin them up next time I'm by there. Probably in the morn. "Excuse me ma'am, would you like that wood removed free of charge? :salute:

    Heck yeah! These guys are a bad influence. On the other hand, I could die today and mama wouldn't have to worry about heat for 3 or 4 years!

    Now you are really getting into the swing of things. I'm into my 70's and seems I can't go anywhere but what I see so much wood going to waste. This probably really seems odd because I get all the firewood we need right here on our own place but I still can't seem to help myself but to look for trees that need to come down.

    The most Un-nerving sound to a person with FAD is a chipper running within ear shot. Course a chainsaw running is a call to arms.

    ha! I walked out the door this morning and first thing I heard was a saw. I froze in my tracks and went straight to bloodhound mode. But I realized I was almost late so I headed in.

    I have hauled wood in the boot but I think you mean inside the passenger compartment; I have seen that on here.
