Pic 9451 is some rounds (the worst) of the Sugar Maple branch that was down, pic 9452 is whats left, pic 9453 is some Leeks sprouting, pic 9454 is heading out with the Sugar Maple and Cherry, 9455 is another Cherry, 9459 ..... the rest is from running around getting wood I had cut up.
Tomorrow I'll finish stacking the Maple, it should come out to 1.24 cord or 4 NY Face Cord. The first pic is the chit wood left over from the bottoms of the last stacks, I would use punky wood for the bottom row, not anymore. Pic 9490 is the last load of the day and what's left of the Maple.
Good work Woody! Do I spy a little white stuff? It was only a week ago you were pulling your hair out regarding putting my plow on!
I made a run back in to fill in a low spot on the trail and then came back to finished up the stacking from yesterday and the new stack today. The front row will be saved for some Beech and Sugar Maple.
Good find. There are numerous large sugar maple blowndowns up off the ground around here on crown land and I have permit. Only problem is I got a tandem load in June and it's all split and piled in the wood shed and no more room. We got about 7 years ahead now and I'm getting older and stiffer and slower. Heck, at this age I don't even buy green bananas. Maybe someone else will get a permit and use it. My wife says "not likely as they can't be bothered." She says"your're the only one" ... forget it ... won't go there. But she loves the fire.
On my ride today around the woods, I saw what looked to be a downed Sugar Maple branch and the best thing is the area is FLAT, I'll get a closer look this weekend. I'll have some cleanup to do so I can get at it so I'm hoping it's a good branch.
