Yeah, it looked a lot like the silver maple I worked up recently. Either way, that's free BTU's, and an awesome wife.
Gotta agree with everyone else here...that's the "Mapliest" looking Oak I've ever seen I think I see a small leaf on the side of that one round in the 3rd pic...that would solve it...
With a wife like that, beautiful and industrious and a hoarder to boot, who cares what kind of wood that is?
A crisp close up of the end grain would help solidify the ID.... unless your newly acquired wood has that unmistakable oak smell? Great pic of you and your Mrs.
