Stumpy an I headed out the the Ash score today. my friend had picked up a maul and axe (fiskars both) and had split some wood. I split maybe three...

Another load home today. And, the main trunk of the first two trees.....beginning to rot. The wood splits well, but is a bit lighter than the...
That's a good arrangement there.
I'm sure there are kiddos in the future, but they'll be all the way in OH. My dad-heart is NOT happy about that, but there might be other kiddos...
I used my new FHC SS hookaroon today! I used it a little on site for moving logs around, and then again for pulling wood across the trailer when...
