    We had to get a couple orders delivered this morning.
    1st load was for a casual burner, firepit. It's been since '21 that they got wood from us.
    Got out some smaller hickory limbs and red oak. The Echo XS2511T and XS4910 got to play today 20261009_092243.jpg 20261009_092159.jpg 20261009_093315.jpg
    That made about 3/4 tote. Some of the oak was punky, it got tossed in the junk bin. We topped it off with some 2+ yr old cherry... 20261009_104040.jpg They said stack it on the ground...:picard:
    Should have brought some plastic pallets... 20261009_112408.jpg
    2nd load went to a church member that helps heat her house with her fireplace. 20261009_120950.jpg A tote of premium white oak...:thumbs:...didn't have to do any one- handed push or pull ups either:whistle::whistle:

    Alaska advantage we can count on cold. Even so a fair amount of people use the cheaper of the two between heating oil and firewood or a combination of both. We are $6.75 for HHO and we are selling for $450 a cord. And we are busy and 2 weeks creeping towards 3 weeks out for delivery. And honestly the panic will set in soon for firewood. We are starting to hear it on the phone. With current fuel prices we have increased from $400.

    Same here for smoker bundles. Bad year compared to last. Barely a tire kicker too.

    Economy must be hurting folks in these parts. We started good but have slowed down to a 3 day out wait list. We had a late summer wildland fire that burned through town that burned 108 structures and 50 houses. I’m sure some folks went and got that easily gained green/burnt wood. Here’s to work picking up some and a better economy, in spite of the election.
