Bunkering time is as soon as the trucks can actually make here and back without getting stuck somewhere in the driveway and I have room to load up. In the spring for sure.
Now two years ago this month the boss took granddaughter to Sebago Lake State Park and she went swimming in the lake, this morning the boss said that when she looked at the thermometer it was saying -7 something.
2 years ago we had the boat out on the lake. last year was a little cool yet, But the Crokus's were up and we saw grass. Still have 10" of white chit on the ground and the lake has a foot of ice on it. better be gone in 5 weeks cause the fish be calling and my azz(roids) don't like sitting on a 5 gallon bucket. And fishing through a hole in the ice is rather boring!!
hey, its that darn Global Warming.......its warmer for some folks, colder for others.....we are all the "others".....at least that's what the self-proclaimed "Inventor of the Internet" sez
If that *wipe would turn off half the stuff in his house one might believe somewhat of what he says. But the do as as I say not as I do types are not to be believed on anything and anytime.
We has that issue for many years, but the town extended the road another 500 ft, put in a turn around and paved the road. Then I had my driveway surfaced. All the walkways are also hard surfaced. The dogs love to run there. That ended our mud season issues. Driveway is large but it was worth doing. When the sun hits the hot top, the snow and ice melt even if is still below freezing.
That won't happen here. We are not at the end of a town road. The primary issue is the slopes as far as the driveway is concerned but the turn around area can get a bit "muddy" actually loose. Unless it is clear and dry I won't order anything that requires a truck to deliver. I had oil delivered here the first winter (we moved in the first half of December) and watched that operation. We moved just before the snows hit, my first delivery the day after we moved was a snow blower, the truck didn't dare enter our portion of the driveway. Between that and the oil deliveries I swore off ordering stuff that needed a truck to deliver it. Small packages don't always get delivered by UPS, USPS, or Fed Express.
I doubt you'll ever see overstock again. It may happen inland but with futures trading in place any excess at mills within reasonable distance to a port are gonna export and gain working capital in the off season. It may even prompt some mills to make a pellet just for the export market in the off season. Export infrastructure is growing at a rapid pace. Raw product acquisition infrastructure (ie logging crews and sawmills )is also a bottleneck and will be for some time to come.
Too much but I wasn't going to whine about price after spending two weeks buying 10 bags at a time; $309. for a ton.
$309/ton wow. Lowes sold the remaining GS's for $279/ton locally. But I bet if they get anymore they jack em up too!!
Picked up 20 bags of Pinnacle pine pellets at my dealer today. They had a one ton limit… there's a 15 bag limit on their Uncle Jed's. The sales girl told me they got a carload of the pines from Pinnacle as they had these on site but unsold… that fixed a major supply problem. But my dealer (they bag their own) was out of the right bags so they came in Western Elite Doug Fir bags!
Lowes and the whole Greene team is just dirty biz, incidentally Robbie g indicates some are coming to Wallingford ct in 2 weeks hah! 309$ ton for teams ?,!.? That's exotic pellet money Ray
I generally avoid those folks where I end up questioning their business practices or ethics, but Ive found that loyalty can be bought, ethics be dammed, as long as their prices are cheap (for some folks).......just an observation.....
Pellets showing up on Clist for 5 bucks a bag here. Shortage over. Despite a lot of whining there were pellets here if you looked hard enough. Not all of them were from aholes on Clist ripping folks off.
