If you make the effort....show intention....show desire to work for what it is you desire, the Lord will see and help you along the way. The past couple of weeks I have missed a couple of CL scores. Last night we had a punishing rain storm. Heavy rain driven by high winds. The building I work in was flooded. No work today. Nice. Out for a bonus bike ride. A mile out coming back home, passed a guy cutting up a big maple limb blow down. Got home grabbed my saw and stuff and headed back. Got a half load of good maple. Nice. Made a lunch and decided to check the FB maket place. Just looked at it for the first time last night. A listing for a maple tree just taken down. Come get the wood. Sent a message. Still there. About 6 miles from my house. My wood chore duties for the year are done. Replaced all the wood I burned last year. Strange and mysterious ways.... all we have to do is receive the bounty w/gratitude.
Last year we burned maybe a cord and half. It was a very warm, dry winter. Plus I was burning that old oak. It's a whole new perspective on wood burning, when I'm used to burning pine. A normal, cold winter we will burn 3 cords.
