    Hey there... Back after a yearlong or so absence from FHC. Good to be back with my fellow firewood hoarders! It's like 'Cheers', but for woodaholics. :D

    Ok, we'll just be friendly neighbors then, until the next Gophers v. Hawkeyes game. Then we'll be adversaries for a day... :-D

    In Arizona now, but raised on a farm in Humboldt County Iowa back in the Hayden Fry and Lute Olson years. Once a Hawkeye, always a Hawkeye. Never stopped following them. Say Grizzly Adam, my parents used to take me to a roller-skating rink in Algona quite often. I don't suppose it's there anymore ?

    I have an Aunt and Uncle that live in Titonka, and a buddy from the cabin who lived in Algona . It really is a small world class
