    Loaded up my deck the other day and I decided since it's pretty temperate still I would burn all the random size hunks and chunks of stuff that aren't really reliable for long-term heat. The unfortunate side of the strategy is that my woodpile is the ugliest woodpile I have ever seen and I get to look at it for the next few weeks .

    Right where I want to be.
    If you imagine it as heat, it'll look gooder.

    A great way to go- this way you get rid of all that stuff in a short time. The uglies I have are all mixed in with the 'real' splits so I have to deal with them constantly and there are always more lurking a little further down in the wood pile.

    Where are they? All I see is great BTU'S! When do you want me to come by and pick them up so you don't have to look at them?

    Any piece that fits in the stove, is non-ugly, IMO

    No glue and no paint = perfectly good wood. The stove doesnt judge. :)

    So ugly, I think burning it is the only solution. Beauty will rise from the ashes.
