Nice felling, Mother Nature!! Nope - no snow here in Mass. We've been on the warm side of the last few storms. I'm ok with that, as I can still gather wood to have to CSS over the next few months. Doesn't seem right to empty a wood rack, without being able to fill it back up!
Red Oak but it will wait a few days or weeks as I have many of these Dead Red Oaks to take down on the way to the blow down. Wish I had a few FHC members in the area that needed wood.
Yeah, it would be nice if we were closer as I could use some nice red oak. We do have some oak here but not a lot. Funny too because right across a couple of our fence lines there are lots and lots of nice red and white oak. We have a few but most are not very large and I hate to cut any because if we cut then no acorns to plant new trees.
Depends on which end of Mass you're in. I've still got a blanket here despite the rain yesterday. Added a half inch to it tonight. I'm in the "here there be dragons" end. Nice looking tree! Good size and straight as an arrow. Thanks, wind!
Try using your "good" eye Great avatar pic Scotty Overkill You got all sorts of good wood to cut on gboutdoors
You know you got it good or you are a REAL wood snob if you have to think twice about going after this oak. I love the no bark no branches of my dead standing oak. That and this oak will take 3 years to season. So I guess that makes me a short season time snob also.
