    I worked Labor Day when I was to be off. I figured I better take it sooner rather than later, so the bossman won't forget it's owed.
    Moved wood down to the patio.

    This hopefully will last until mid november. Have a little to fill in on the back stack yet. Stack is 9x4x4

    Front row is a mix of 3 year old cherry, box elder, some sort of maple, sass, horse chestnut and probably some odds and ends. Middle row mostly 3 year old ash, back row has some pine, more ash, chestnut and will have some oak to fill in. Tossed top cover on quick as the rain was moving in.

    The dynamic duo helping.

    Nice.
    Good to have a useful day off!
    So a cord will get you to November?
    Will you bring more up now for after November, or wait till then to refill the rack?
    Looks good!

    Last 2 years we made it to about the middle of Nov. temp. dependent of course. I have about 2.5 cords of red/ white oak in the shed, I'll pull from there later and have another stack of BL and more oak to pull us through to end of season.

    I think we ran through 2 cord by end of year here last year. Probably the bulk of that was december and end of november.
