    picture 147.jpg Well, three weeks less a day and I'm finished. Most of that was done on weekends and after work and not busting my azz either. Six to eight hours a day on weekends and an hour and a half after work so I only had to use a day and a half out of my holiday this week.

    Used the tractor to haul away the rest of the sawdust and bark to a corner where we pile all the leaves in the fall...

    Of course the dogs were there to help.

    And there's the finished product. It's nice to know I don't have to do anything with it now, nature will take over the drying part. 7 rows 16' long and piled into the rafters, 8' at the front of the shed and 7' at the back.
    Dry Baby, Dry!

    I can appreciate how much work that was to process all of that wood. Good job Chris! Now celebrate with an ice cold beverage.
