Home from work early today and I decided to drop the maple I was eye balling as I was done with the cherry. And even got some (what I think is)...
If it's thorny it's probably locust. Nice hot burning locust....:drool:
Hey I'll take it even if it was black birch.:rofl: :lol:
All of the stumps in my area that I cut (aside from the hemlocks) have been pizzing like that, and no there were no catkins. The branches towards...
A great way to season firewood!:thumbs:

I thought that at first too, same dark grey color.
It'll be nice when it's dry and ready to burn. :thumbs:
