    I know the feeling. I've become "that guy". Lol. My one neighbor says he judges how long and cold the winter is going to be by his much firewood I've hoarded up in the yard. :)

    I'd say you're hardly the only one. I look at my firewood at least 3 time a day! :woodsign::stack::woodsign::stack::woodsign:

    Had a party at my place last weekend. Several people came up and said "You have a lot of wood" Makes me laugh every time and never gets old to hear.

    I've had that alot this year! No one is selling firewood right now. My younger neighbor (accidentally) sold a cord. He put 400$ as a number, thinking it would run the guy off! Nope. Now he is a cord shy:rofl: :lol:. I check my wood piles like I'm on CQ.

    Yep. After we got my wood moved, its stacked on the side of the garage and some out in the drain field area on an old basketball court. Haven’t quite had the opportunity to get back to work on it or really look at it.... But I’m itching...

    Yes I have been known to behave in this manner. My favourite time is at sunset after a hot summers day,

    The smell of firewood that has been baked in the sun all day and the sound of Cicada bugs, the subdued orange light as the sun drops below the distant hills, it's almost a surreal and enigmatic experience.

    When anyone here in S NH comments on my hoard, I ask them if they remember the ice storm in 2008? They get a thoughtful look on their face.

    Just the other day I ran the bush hog around my stacks and thought how nice they look with a fresh haircut.
