    My 17 year old was getting in some practice driving today. As I was riding shotgun, I took the opportunity to have him pull over so I could take a picture. What cannot be seen out of the picture on the left was a truck that contained a small child and two women. My son told me I looked like some kind of stalker.

    I told him I didn't care what it looked like, I wanted a picture of that firewood ... truth is, I want the firewood too (I do have a firewood envy issue). I find great sport in looking at other people's firewood hoards; just don't often get to stop and take a picture.

    The load has been there for several days, tempted to knock on the door and ask if they want to dump it somewhere close for free. :D

    Starting to cool down a bit now, so hope to start adding to my stacks soon ... for now, I will continue my stalking ways.

    Can't hurt to ask, never know might be a good contact for the future.

    That looks like a nice farwood truck for sale too.

    Most people don't want to mess with stuff that big.

    Leave 'em a note, just not from letters all cut out from magazines...

    Yeah there's a house near me with an enormous supply of wood (they sell it). They're probably getting ready to call the cops about the red truck that slows down every time I go past there.

    We need stickers that say something to the effect of " don't mind me, just looking for firewood".
