    More city scrounges of HL

    My HL in my front yard looks just like these, except it's in one living piece and it needs to stay that way. 20190318_181552.jpg

    Also it is very difficult to split with a maul. It laughs as the maul bounces off.

    I also got a small scrounge of HL thick cookies. The guy thought they were maple, it was in his front yard. That's one odd looking maple. Anyway, I figured I could chunk off pieces around the outside. These 24" or so rounds are only 5" or so thick. I figured wrong. They are sitting waiting for the hydraulic splitter to be brought over.
