    Preach on brother!

    I'll be on two, or one wheel, like The Wood Wolverine , then in or on the lake in my ski nautique. I'll also be emptying beer cans and bottles.

    I guess I'll have to work too.

    Sadly, I have never been able to enjoy playing while I've had work to do. Couldn't even enjoy an evening ride unless the lawn was cut....

    Dave, you spend too much time in crawl spaces. Get out and put some fun miles on :handshake:

    I guess after I'm done helping out Horkn and schlot with their projects, and after I stop by and harass Eric VW I should be along shortly out to your place to help you enjoy what summer is left!

    Just look for the green truck coming up your driveway and have a cold Mt. Dew ready!

    #1 split all wood that is cut
    #2 cut all wood that needs to be bucked
    #3 Ride Harley Davidson as much as possible
    #4 clear area for massive garden. This includes cutting down multiple trees and digging out the stumps. Huh. Looks like I'm not gonna have much time for #3. Lol

    Ill be moving the non-covered wood into one the sheds that was emptied during the winter. Then Ill be growing MATERS! After that I will be building a small greenhouse for my wife. It was a birthday gift for her. Ill admit its for me too... so I can grow MATERS! Im going to try to heat it with the outdoor furnace. Just another excuse to burn wood. :whistle:

    Been cutting all winter so Im going to take a break and visit family in Alaska and go to as many different MLB stadiums I can get to. The rest of the summer Ill be spoiling grand daughters. :banana:

    Yep! You started something that can go on & on & on....
    I/we hope to travel and see family on LI, but mostly reorg wood stacks and transport multiple cords from a 20 minute away repository. We shall see.:)
    Oh, maybe get CHeath up here for a BBQ session....:whistle:

    Let's see. First the need for wood activities does not stop just because it is not time to burn. I have a couple of trees behind my house that I need to deal with.
    Then there are all the other activities like a trip to SEVR on my Victory motorcycle.
    Southeast Victory Motorcycle Rally
    Of course there are all the GTGs to consider although this year it looks like I will be a bit busy.
    I still need to visit my 95 year old dad every year for a week or so. I doubt he will be doing his snow bird thing any more so that probably means a trip to the Orlando area to spend some time there.
    Now add on the fact that although I am retired I have a house I need to finish building and I am getting darned tired of that hanging over my head. This may be the year that I finish it and move in. That is the place where I actually have a wood stove and the remaining work is only about 4 months of full time work if I actually attack it instead of just messing around like I have been the last couple of years.
    Once that place is finished I need to do all of the neglected maintenance on the house I have been living in so that I can sell it.

    Nope. Nothing much to do off season.

    Meeting up with fellow hoarders say, in Michigan? Priceless.:yes:
    Attending a GTG will bring the carpenters/helpers out of the wood work like you wouldn't believe. True story.
