    Wow! Nice work LP.... :yes: Looks like your more than keeping up with new wood compared to how much you have been burning this year.

    Have you been splitting all these truckloads I see you bringing home?

    Nope, splitter has not been used since last May. Over the next few weeks I will probably start tidying up the area I was pulling off of for burning and then get started some in the evenings now that we are having daylight. I have so much outside work ahead of me......gravel around our new building, (did finish the wiring), topsoil needed for all the ruts in the yard from running the bobcat around to the building, a ton of splitting and have 4 places now that I am cutting, 2 places I sort of have commitments to get cut and hauled out. GOING TO BE BUSIER THAN A ONE ARMED PAPER HANGER. That's just the outside stuff, have a few projects inside too.

    Looks like you could use a good square tube and expanded steel headache rack/back window protector.
    Nice load of firewood. Your snow conditions look like it will here in 6 weeks.

    You've got similar show to what we have here. Not really any.

    Nice work! How was the mud by you?

    For what it's worth that's all limb wood. Tree was a big one, didn't measure it but I'd guess over 4 feet across the stump.

    Not messing with the main log, my friend has a mill and is taking that. He called to see if I wanted to help the owner out, cleaning up the remains. Sure do, about a mile from home.
