Although it's kinda short notice, for any of the locals who are interested, there is a cutting/splitting party that is set for April 20th (weather/ground conditons permitting) just west of Ellsworth. The local motel (Motel David) had part of their woods logged in the winter and had to use the parking field of the Pierce County Archery range for a landing. The archery range asked that the wood be removed ASAP this past weekend so any help will be greatly appriceated. Most logs are about 12-16" with a few being 24-26". Mostly hard/soft maple but there's some basswood, ash and oak. Shouldn't take very long to cut, but it's mostly going to be splitting. So far I have 2 gas splitters lined up with a possible 3rd, along with a few people from the church to help out, but I'm going to pitch it again this sunday at church. We can meet for breakfast at 7 am in Ellsworth at the Hwy 63 diner over by the creamery/cheese store, then start cutting/splitting by 8. Still hashing out final details on this end, first time for me puttung one of these together. I'll try to get some pics of the cutting area up here tomorrow.

Seeing as how old man winter wants to be "a turd that won't flush" I don't think it will be very dry in the field any time soon. Drove by today and there's stading water surrounding the wood. Probably won't be until Memorial Day weekend when it will dry out at this rate.

Are you making the trip, Ted? Bring a truck, and we'll throw some cookies in so you can call it a firewood trip.

It'll be fine, and if it isn't, can't do much about it.

If this nonsense brings us the end of the drought, it will be time well spent.

I'm game. What time should we meet? 7:30?

 

[andydodgegeek]

We do have to save room for the eats at boyds but I think I would still like breakfast.

Its hard to put a number on it, as its disappearing as soon as it lands. The ground here has about four inches on it, yesterday I plowed about 4.5". Had another two on the driveway this morning, but didn't have to plow 25 miles SW of here.

Seen some late to the party flakes this morning. The cold, for this time of year, continues into next week, thats the problem.
