    I was able to get back and work on the locust I started on Saturday. Ended up getting a little over two trailer loads. Would have been a little more, have one more tree to take down there but I didn't have time to take it down. First load was all locust, second load was mostly locust with a bit of cherry and maple, last little bit was cherry and maple. Pretty good haul, I'm thinking close to 4 cord. (Trailer is 7x3x12) I def have my work cut out for me getting this all split and stacked.

    You'll never fit all that in the carport.
    I guess I'll have to take it off your hands. That's just how I do.......
    Now, I just need your # so I can give you my address, and you can deliver it. :rofl: :lol::rofl: :lol:

    See, now right there is what makes this club so great, the selflessness of guys like@papadave . He is just ready and willing to help out. He will even help unload it when you deliver it.

    Swags, I like to mix cherry and maple with locust to keep the locust burning well. Good haul and looks like some god's country :)

    Me too, a few lesser woods in there to get it going good.

    I've been getting a lot of really good stuff the last few years (oak, locust,sugar maple). So I needed to grab some more stuff to burn in shoulder season when I don't want as long of a fire.

    Nice Score! Good looking haul - doesn't look like too many back breakers in there. Can't do much better than that. :)

    Wow , that looks like twice what I picked up a month ago and I have been working hard at it between obligations since. You have your work cut out for you, but totally worth it.
