Looks like you had a good day - it's been cloudy and rainy for 5 straight days here. Supposed to see the sun tomorrow - I've almost forgot what...
45 minutes is a long way to go for wood. I'd get it if I was going there anyway, like you said delivering wood or if you had something else to do...
I have a Fisher Papa Bear heating 1800 square feet plus basement. Stove is in the basement. No heat is used other than woodstove, although I can...
Just finished up my chunks, uglies, and campfire wood this week. Took 2 months to get through it all, and I'd guess maybe 1/2 cord but it's hard...
I pile them by the fire pit. I either saw or split them small enough that they will fit in the stove though. Whatever is not burned outside gets...
Yeah it was either get out and work or go have my stomach pumped after that meal!
Treasure those times together - my dad died when I was in my early 20s - I'd give almost anything to spend a day like that with him now.
Just hauled the last of the chunks and uglies up to the house today - crazy how mild it's been here. After the last 2 winters I could use a mild...
Yeah people around here will let it rot - had a friend who cut some because they were hanging over his driveway. By the time I saw the logs on...
I haven't burned much hickory but I hear it's very dense and can be hard on chains. I also hear it's great firewood! I don't know how long it...
Highs around 67 I think, I definitely worked up a sweat! Very sunny most of the day here too!
Looks awesome! That's how I spent my day too but it looks like you got more wood for sure! Great weather for being outside here in Virginia too!
Here's the second of 2 loads I cut today. Both were tops of red oak trees. The first had been cut down, the main trunk was taken and the top was...
Free is good. Oak and hickory is good. Brought to your house is good. All of it together is beyond great!
Yeah - the maple was pretty small, maybe 6-8" diameter. The oak at its largest was 15" diameter. I left the top 1/4 of the trunk because it was...
Yesterday I was able to go out and cut in the National Forest, red oak tree blew over right by the road, took a smaller maple with it. Went after...
Used up the last of my chunks and uglies this past weekend. Was going to burn pine and then get to the oak as it got colder. Well, we've had a...
Have seen this trick before but have never used it. I prefer to just split the wood where it lies, rather than pick it up to put it inside a...
I use metal exactly like yours on my stacks. I just put large splits on top, a lot mind you, to hold them down. Not pretty but usually works....
I guess with that fire you're pretty hot, mama!
