    Wind storm knocked over 6 or 7 decent sized oaks around the corner from me. It was a nasty tangled mess. The township spent quite a while clearing the road. I'd inquire about it, but I'm already several oak trees behind on my own property. 20190417_155427.jpg

    That’s a shame to see the big trees taken down. Hopefully a hoarder gets the wood.

    If it’s your own property you can get to them anytime.
    Go get these now :eek:
    I have wood on my property but I cut everyone else’s first.

    Looks nice ! I just start cutting. If I’m asked, first thing I do is offer to stop and apologize (if need be).

    At least grab a truckload. That looks like nice straight red oak. Can you park in a driveway just past the wood? Like they stated mike bayerl your own trees can wait. BTW first time ive ever seen a goose crossing sign!

    I said this here before, when I was picking up wood on the side of the road in town, a cruiser pulled up behind me and the cop asked if I had truck problems. No I said, just getting wood. well he said, Asplunduh has been cutting down such and such a road and there's wood there for you. My tax dollars REALLY at work for me, thank you sir!:salute: Off I went to get said wood. America at it's best!:usa:

    Everybody and his brother burns up here in the country, not so much in our 13 cities. My biggest competition for wood here is Midwinter :rofl: :lol:. She noticed on the the way to Well Seasoned 's gtg last year there was no wood on the side of the road on the way up. I told her that's cause I already got it all, it's the way to my camp.

    mike bayerl this is a no brainer. Your truck parks inches away from the wood you're loading for pete's sake! And no mud to drive through!

    Lucky dog!
