    A good friend is the executor of her father’s estate. They are getting the house ready to sell and they had a big ash tree dropped by a professional. There is more wood there than I can take. I noodled/split 3 of the rounds this evening. Took home about a 1/4 cord. I will probably take 1.25 cord. IMG_4326.jpeg IMG_4328.jpeg IMG_4329.jpeg IMG_4330.jpeg IMG_4332.jpeg IMG_4334.jpeg

    More than you can take? Where’d that idea come from? It’s your duty to help your friend clean up that tree. Feel better? :)
    Nice score.

    Nice wood!!

    No way to drive close? The wheelbarrow loads are a killer.

    Get it all! Leaving any of that behind would be shameful, and in direct violation of FHC rule #1 (which is, get it all!) your FHC rating is hanging in the balance here...;) :thumbs:
    And don't make Brad drive up there! :rofl: :lol:

    I was going to suggest using a ramp and rolling them onto the truck but if you can't get the truck close that won't work. I've done that many times. That is some nice ash rounds.
