    Aww, how can I say no? There's been a lot of this cherry lately, it must be weak in the wind. I'll bring it over, but you gotta be home!

    Easy come, easy go, it's all free, and there's more coming every day. Your call, but I don't mind sharing.

    I appreciate the offer, but I suspect that the pickins are gonna be good for us hoarders for quite a while now.

    I am still damm jealous of your dump over mine though! My entire dump fits in the collection area to the left of your scale house, with room to spare.

    Yeah Craigslist is heating up! Not that I'm tempted to drive any distance, the dump is so good right now.

    The end pallet is leaning slightly, I have some stuff leaning against the end and against the fence behind the stack, it makes the lean look worse

    Way to go! Company car, or your wife's? The dump pickings have slowed right down. It's closed this Saturday, so Monday might be good.

    Apple is a great burner - very hot wood. Takes a bit of time to dry, but it's worth the wait. We come across a bit now and then, and while I use most for 'cue, I like to burn apple on Christmas morning and crack the windows to let the scent into the house. It smells delicious!

    This is most of my apple, two car loads. The rest of the bin is mixed scrounge. I'll be splitting it in the spring, and on IMG_20171110_40477.jpg any warm winter days.
