I'm glad I'm not the only guy who views small amounts of wood as 'x' amount of heat-time. Any wood that can produce BTUs and not clog my chimney is good wood
So when I spot a split on the side of the road that fell of someone's truck I'm not crazy for stopping and throwing it in my bed and justifying it by saying "what the hell theirs 25 minutes or so." I do this quite often.
I scrounge what I can find also I pick this up along side the road where a tree fell and someone cut it up and left a free pieces than drove all back roads back home looking for more
I've even been known to stop and pick up a 2 x 4 that someone lost. Not an 8 footer but still a good 2 x 4. Sometimes it is amazing the things one can come across.
Exactly I'm glad I'm not the only one who picks up scrap lumber or wood a man never knows when he might need it lol
