The book “ Norwegian Wood” describes the “ wood age” which is how gathering wood is an older man’s game. The older a man is the more likely he’ll...
Maybe the NyQuil caused me to miss all the down trees, lol
I’m in SE CT. I was out cold courtesy of NyQuil overnight so I missed the real time action. I don’t see too much tree damage but the creeks are...
The dog doesn’t look impressed, lol. very cool stove!

I read similar stuff about the American chestnut. Very interesting
I’ve driven by that church. I said to my wife that I think it’s odd that they left the wood in rounds like that. I’m sure she was rolling her eyes...
Maybe a different guy will be there next time to ask. I wouldn’t give up on it.
I always thought holly was supposed to be high BTU wood.
