My least favorite time in VT is mid March to mid May. This weather is absolutely awful.
I used to love summer up here, but I think September and October are the nicest months now. It's like the humidity suddenly gets turned off about...
Last summer was so hot I thought we were being punished.
I've gone through about 2 cords plus however much I burned in lumber cutoffs. I'm guessing maybe a half cord or so. 1300 sq ft house.

Good morning everyone! Snow showers shortly.
Elm splits better when partially dry and frozen.
It just started spitting snow here and the wind is blowing.

Good morning everyone! A couple chilly days ahead before what looks like a nice warm up begins.
Happy Easter everyone!

Good morning everyone! No real plans for the day.
It looks like it would make the process very slow.
I love poplar. It can get a fire going really good.

Good morning everyone! A wet morning and nice afternoon ahead.
If nothing else, roots are dirty and dull saws. Poor return on investment in my opinion.
