    I’ve sold some wood but actually get more enjoyment from giving it to somebody who needs it. I’ve been blessed with easy access and I enjoy the whole process of making firewood.
    Good job, you did a good thing.

    Yep that is a good deed for sure. I was just wondering who was going to split and stack it and also it needs to dry.
