Neighbor about a mile down the road calls and told me a big oak limb at his house broke off in last nights storm. I told him I would be down later today to cut it up and haul it. He proceeds to tell me he already cut it up and stacked it plus threw all the small branches back in the woods. He just wanted to know if I wanted the wood. :innocent:

Did you tell him he cut it all too short and it won't stack right in your stove?
 
I never get neighbors like that. Nice to get wood already cut up.
Trust me, this wasn’t the norm. Cut up a wind damaged maple for another neighbor down the road awhile back, she was all bent out of shape when I didn’t clean up the chips after I sawed the tree up.

PEOPLE! are like night and day !! right and wrong, good and bad. humanity is really insanity!!
 
I get probably 5-6 calls a summer about wanting to give some wood.

Problem is its not worth it to me. Spend the better part of a day to haul a cord or two, or haul logs we cut and pull in 30-40 cords in the same time.

In the past I've passed it on to others but that ended up biting me in the butt... nobshowed, left a mess, tore up the yard, etc and I got blamed for it.
