    Went to the beach house today. When I got there I noticed pile of rounds in the
    Driveway. Red Oak, left for me by my arborist friend/neighbor.

    Sweet load of oak! Looks to be all straight grain easy splitting rounds.

    Hopefully you didn't have to move it to get in driveway. Nice when you find that type of surprise.

    Looks like sweet stuff. Seeing those short cuts irks me a bit though. Such nice wood, cut so not nice. I know wood is wood, and it all burns, but you can't stack those splits. It would probably take the tree guys just as long to noodle it in half, so there would be 16 inch splits. I don't know, maybe I am just getting picky.
