    I ran across a pile of wood. I noticed it was Oak. But drove on by. However the best got to me finally. So I had to flip a U-Turn and head straight back for it. Hopefully the rest of the pile will still be there tomorrow. I'll have the saw with me. But got the more manageable piece tonight.

    That's tough, free wood and all. I think if you hadn't turned around your hoarding card might be revoked.

    I'd say locust too. The bark tells the tale.

    Good deal you turn around and got it, I don't know how many times I have made a u-turn and, came away empty-handed because they were wood burners or it was promised to someone else, but no matter I will keep turning around and keep asking cuz sometimes I do get some wood
