    Decided today was a good day to move some wood. The weather was nice early, then thunder & lightning with some hail, that happened twice, but in between I got 3.5 cord of Oak, Ash, & Elm stacked up. Heard a loud crash in the wind, & lo & behold more shoulder wood. Another dead Pine down. At least it missed the splitter. That's what you see under the blue tarp. Tired out & done for today, but got a bunch done.

    Thanks Dave, that was a bit of heavy hauling, it only had to go about 30' so I just did it by hand. That wood will be for the cold weather. That cart load parked in there is Silver Maple that's split small & really dry. I'll burn that till the weather goes to Winter. Easy enough to move with the power cart.

    Thank you, been a while coming, but it's how I wanted it. I was real glad that tree missed my splitter. That's my new Rugged Built. Could've been a problem.

    Hey amateur cutter you'll have that thing full in no time the way you are going. Glad the splitter was out of the way.

    We too had some hail here. That brought the temperature down.
