You can use the moisture meter or you can take two splits and smack them together. If they make a hollow sound they're probably dry, if they make...
If it's sunburst honey, black or even purple robe I'll take it and like it. Great score man.

It was taken to a dump site far away from any ponderosa pines
Another eight ponderosa pines went this summer at Goldwater Lake. We shut the main gate at daybreak as this was one that had to be felled across...
The lift only went up 35ft so a working height of around 40ft. Only had to rent it for a half day so after tax it came to $267.00. I really liked...
