    The area I planned on working today had some four legged animals filling their stomachs with leek tops so I went to this downed Maple in another area.

    After I took care of the so so Maple, I decided to get a small Maple up top along with some rounds I had cut up over a week ago.

    I'm surely with you on the sassafras! Best smelling wood there is.

    If sassafras is the best, then black birch is surely a close 2nd.

    Fresh cut cedar a close 3rd. A logger told me the French make perfume out of cedar oil. He said they were big buyers in the American Cedar Market.
