    For those of you who followed “the march to 150” last year, know I processed and sold a record 180 cords. And for those following “the march to whatever 2020 brings” you’ve seen I’m off to a good start yet again. BUT today I measured and figured I am already at 130 cords cut and split with another 10-12 cords cut just waiting to be split. Pictured are the piles I have so far. Only 1 pile is truly finished and it stands at 105 feet long. At the current pace, I should hit 225 cords with relative ease.

    That's pure insanity considering you have a job for 9 months of the year.

    I'm not worthy... I'm not worthy....

    That's incredibly impressive!! I should not complain when I have too many trees come down and need to be processed... :)

    Really nice work...

    At least they’re working. Lots of kids these days don’t even want to.
