Not a huge score, but not bad for a storm blow-down in a storm ~6 months ago. A tree service broke it up somewhat and just left it. Finally got...
We've got a bunch of it in our neighborhood. Those seed balls are a giant pain in the azz when I'm out walking the dog. Always wondered if it'd...
I definitely never saw it when I lived in Chicago or Boston. But plenty of it here in Philly. Those giant fruits are concerning when you're...
Thanks for the confirmations. I should clarify that I'm just burning in our fireplace for enjoyment, not for heat. I also like to futz with the...
I'm finally burning some black locust that my buddy cut down on his property 18 months ago. It more than lives up to its reputation here. That...
Wow, lots of replies on this one. Thanks. I'm not going to get my hopes up on this one. We'll see what happens when the service drops it (it's...
There's a big, long-dead ash tree in the neighborhood common space that's going to be dropped this winter. Before I get my heart set on...
Spent a week casually breaking down and moving the rounds. And just rolling the bigger, punkier stuff. The biggest piece was 24" diameter where...
Luckily, there were really only 2 or 3 logs that were too big for me to break down. And those were pretty punky, so I just rolled them off into...
So after forgetting I was still signed up, and not really needing any wood this year, I got a 9am call that an arborist was on his way with some...
Not too cold here, but we're in the middle of our snowstorm. Got maybe 4-6" so far with another 6-8" predicted tonight. Fully expecting to lose...
Back when I lived in Boston, every SuperBowl party we'd do the "Malt Liquor Review". A double-blind, double-elimination taste test of the 8...
My wife grew up in Massapequa and her dad moved to Rocky Point after a divorce. Spent some weekends in Rocky Point this summer fixing his house...
I know it's early December already, but when I order and pay for a cord of SEASONED firewood, I expect it to be at least mostly dry. 3/4 of this...
Nice load. As of right now they're only predicting 8" for us here right outside of Philly. At lunchtime I'll start stacking up wood on the patio...
The tree service left the logs stacked in his cul-de-sac for almost a week. I took home 3.5 hatch-loads in the subie. I've had to move to a 2nd...
Thanks, it's been a few years since I was active on any forum and those finer details were forgotten. I had a small window to get that posted...
Wow, thanks for all the replies. Fittingly, a neighbor heard about my new-found love of free logs and mentioned he had some under his deck from...
Just joined, so I thought I'd post a long hello to get started. In the past year I've taken to harvesting as much of my own firewood as I can....
