    One of the guys I camp with bought firewood Friday. Shame, horror disgust.
    Later that day we locked ourselves out of our camper (car keys drivers license inside) He let us borrow his truck to run home and get the spare keys. While at the house I loaded his truck up with firewood as a repayment.. So now he has about 2/3 cord of firewood. Not bad for being near the end of the season and using only wood for fire ring.
    Yesterday he goes to the store when gets back had scrounged a bunch of decent cherry limb wood (3-5 in thick). I asked him with all the wood he's got now why. He said when he sees wood on the side of the road he can't resist picking it up. Respect

    Ps. He knows nothing about wood. Last night he threw the green cherry in the fire. Not knowing it would be better to the stuff he bought/i gave and leave the cherry at least to spring. Also not realizing it was cherry
