    Going to have to wait a few days but I almost feel guilty turning the straight stuff into firewood. Now to get some beer to pay for it.

    Ash from the neighborhood. Nice size to work with too. It's been almost 3 years since they last dropped in my yard. I'm here at work wishing I was at home working on it.

    Finally made some progress. As @Gasifser says the enjoyment center has been kicking my butt. But after work today I put my head down and cut some. Really enjoyed it.
