    That's a really nice load. How much do you burn a year?

    Not much just burn to heat the garage. I have always had to burn wet wood but the last year and a half I have been trying to get where I have dry wood.

    Now you are talking! Dry wood is the only way to go for heat. If you want smoke, then green wood is where it is at.

    Didn't see any cedar. Mostly ash one shag bark and one oak. But I have never cut cedar so I'm no expert. I will know as soon as the saw hits it. I trim with it at work.

    Sounds gooder. I’m always interested in different species in different areas of the country. Oak is hard to come by in my area and I haven’t heard of any shagbark around either. Lots of ash and elm. It’s all BTU’s

    I see you are from Sullivan, OH. I don't live that far from Sullivan, Indiana. I used to drive through Sullivan, Missouri when I was out that way.

    We can show you some oaks and hickory at the gtg but you probably already know what they look like.
