    Does your helper bring wood in for you to burn?

    He used to carry off splits and chew them but not interested anymore. He will be 6 in Jan. The only thing he does now is bring me his football to throw while I am outside working wood.

    Good preparation
    True hoarder,
    When we hear cold is weather coming
    We warm up by hauling primo firewood
    closer to the stove.
    :)

    Got everything stocked back up. 6 cord of Oak on the left, Pine & Catalpa under the roof on the right, & about 2 1/2 cord of Oak & Locust mixed in the totes. Should make it through the "Arctic blast" LOL. Another 4 cord of Hard Maple stacked out further left in the picture. 20191109_153339.jpg

    I think you'll do fine through the blast

    Yeah, some folks get them the wrong way. Seems very few remember from year to year that October-November are the months for big time deer collisions. Some never learn.
