    I'm seeing maple and poplar.
    Keep cutting, splitting and stacking.
    I see no willow.

    another load done today, got the top board installed on sides as well, earlier this week.
    Need some dry weather so I can start bringing this stuff home and stacking it proper.
    I'll probably end up with a very short window at this rate to bring it home and that will be all
    I'll end up doing for 2 weeks straight.
    I'll get a picture of what I have stacked next to show what I need to bring home and restack.

    Finished up the last bit of wood the excavator has dropped off.
    I think it was around 6-7 5 ton dumptruck loads overall he has dumped maybe more I never asked.
    More is coming but he can't get to it because it's too muddy.

    12 rows total split and temporarily stacked waiting for my yard to dry out to drive back to the pile and start the stacking all over again.

    looks like some real nice stuff. should give you plenty of heat.
    I ran into some cherry today that I knew was ant infested, I ended up tossing most of that off for the burn pile.
    It was a major city, tons of ants everywhere! I'm glad I did it away from my house.
    Oh and you can keep those temps down there, I'm not ready for that ever.
