    I won’t get a splits pic until Saturday, or later. There’s about 3 cords of Pecan in front of the line.

    I've been lazy too. Lots of sub-species that I have grouped under the main heading. I probably have at least 6 kinds of oak, but they are red and white on my official list. Multiple hickory and maples too.

    I'm probably around 30 species now, but I've about quit counting because it gets too involved. I'm enjoying the pictures of all the different woods.

    Black ash and yellow birch. These went through a processor so the bark is kind of messed up on the black ash.
