I broke protocol again :whistle: There was some roadside tree trimming near my work recently and the wood was pushed down a bank and left behind....
I'll have to file that one away for future use. Along those same lines, one of my favorites has always been muddy water is best cleared by leaving...
Another load of red & white oak heading out for delivery: [ATTACH]
That load showed up 5 minutes before I left for work. I'm going to have to wheelbarrow all of it so I'm guessing a 4+ hour job.
This spring was so wet and cold that I didn't even bother getting my pool up until yesterday when it was blazing hot. It finished filling up at...
Another load of chips from ChipDrop today. This’ll get dispersed in the same areas as last year, for weed control and to help build up the soil....
Same space issue here. I ended up acquiring a couple empty 5 gallon pails with the lids that have a spout on top. They used to have hydraulic oil...
Looks right-sized to me, especially when it's 100 degrees outside. Is that the closest "scrounge" to home you've ever gotten or does that award go...

I don't care how profitable it is and the irony is not lost on me that my paycheck depends on there always being conflict. My kid wants to join...

It’s way too hot for this type of work :picard:Mostly White oak with a few pieces of red mixed in. [ATTACH]
The native black raspberries are just getting ripe now. I trimmed the canes a couple years ago which made this whole patch explode in size....
That’s an huge haul! Ours are pretty much at peak now, but I did notice that a couple trees with the lighter purple (almost white) berries need...
Those darn kids and their rock n’ roll [MEDIA]
Beech leaf disease, caused by a nematode from Japan I believe.
Any wood worth reclaiming?
We've been lucky to have a mild spring this year (minus the many weeks of incessant rain). This'll feel pretty brutal from Saturday until next...
It's a strange wood, very brittle. It shatters more than it splits. As far as burning goes, I found it to be kind of unremarkable. Not bad, not...
I always give my firewood the sniff test as I make it because I’m weird like that. 5 years ago I cut some ash that smelled a lot like black...
