    I don't know about you, but I sure am getting tired of hoisting those big chunks form the ground to the back of the truck bed!

    Yes sir I am, need to get a bigger truck and use one of the trailers. I think I'm at the point that I just want to winch the pieces/rounds up a trailer ramp for a minimum of handling. :)

    Ok
    Your pictures always make it look as if you're going to burn the last tree in West Texas. :)

    Nah, there's one more in the background of the first pic. Better hurry before someone gets there before he does.

    My firewood cutting friend has been unavailable all year so my game is off. We hope to get together after Christmas.
