    Just a mini gtg... IMG_20200610_5190.jpg
    WeldrDave Dave, me and MikeInMa. Mini ones are certainly easier to arrange. We gotta come down and see you in CT sometime this summer. Or get you up to Winchester. Dave's only there thru Monday this time, but he'll be back a lot.

    Not only do you need a splitter but now a trailer. Good job Molly.

    This stuff is dead easy to split. A trailer would be handy if the driveway wasn't steep and rocky.

    Catch-22... the excavator will fix the driveway, but he's taking the rest of the wood.

    Greed is good, but my yard is stuffed with firewood. I'll be content with a couple cords.

    I sold about 3 cords in the last month. Not bad considering I've been out of town for 2 wks.
    Mostly a trailer. But if its not much back of the Yukon xl. Or if trailer is full it goes in SUV

    I caught up with WeldrDave and Chrissy this morning. There is quite a bit more on the ground, but he says 50 more trees must fall! If anyone local has a hankering to do some cutting, he could use some help in the next month or so. Also, free wood to be had! IMG_20200614_34302.jpg IMG_20200614_21500.jpg IMG_20200614_10507.jpg
    He gave me this beautiful straight black birch. He was going to keep it for his personal stash, but found 6 or 8 more that need to come down.

    I'll do my best but there is way more wood than I can hoard!

    • Mwalsh9152 This my life now... at least for the next month. Hope you found some pallets. For the mud kitchens? They look like good outdoor fun.

    Yes, for some of the mud kitchens. I found a few that will work. Not normal 4x6 pallets, so it takes some extra work.

    We built Charlotte a huge mud kitchen about 3 years ago. She still uses it a ton, and loves it.
