I bought 4 more gallons. I have 13 on the shelf now. I’ll pause before buying more. Also bought 2 5 gallon buckets of delvac synthetic diesel oil...
47. Dog woke me up way early so lit a nice fire. Aspen taking the chill off.
I’ve been burning Aspen that I dreaded but I wish I kept the trailer load I gave away! Burns quick and hot, dries fast. Light when dry.
I bought one a few weeks ago and it’s on the shelf until I get a few dish soap or laundry soap bottles to split it into. Was all excited and then...
We spent more time debating the wood stoves for our new build than we did the floor plan, siding, roof, doors, windows, anything. Hard to make a...
44 here, Aspen taking the chill off. Probably 2-3 more days of it in the wood bin still.
This is what I can get on sale for $6 right now. Might grab more today but need to check the stockpile first.
60 or so out. Aspen burning. Finished emptying the tote and brought the rest inside. Pulled a tote of half punky oak and got the cover on before...
Name brand was over $20 a gallon! I think I saw Husqvarna at $27.
Tried to split the next round from the trunk and it’s back to hard and twisted again. What a strange tree. It’ll be satisfying to burn! (In 5 years)
Sounds like the elm I used to burn.
Store called Family Farm and Home. One of those stores like Big R and tractor supply. I don’t remember the brand but it’s a bright orange gallon...
I saw $6 bar oil today so only bought 4 gallons. I better stop buying for a while.
Filled the ash bucket. That aspen is ashy and whatever special dust is in the ash is heavy. I just shoveled it out a week or so ago as well!
That’s the biggest reason for me. Ordered a case of 2 stroke oil, should last long enough that the next time I need it, it’ll be double. If I see...
That’s a lot of deliveries in 2 days plus a bit! Sheesh. Any thoughts on how many cords you processed this year?
I’ve had the same experience so I just nod and say oh okay. Then I burn what I wanted anyways.
50 or so and more Aspen. Shovels out 20# of ash this morning from the last week or so. Maybe out of Aspen by the weekend.
My understanding is where this beech came from was mainly oaks 100 years ago, it was all logged and the beech were what came back first. The first...
52, load of aspen.
