View attachment 365975 Been sorta busy today...
Why do I pick the hottest days to do this crap?

Probably for the same reason I do....you don't have a choice. My time is limited. I work 45-50 hrs per week, have 3 kids in 3 different sports, church responsibilities, family responsibilities, home responsibilities, 6 brothers with a plethora of nieces and nephews, etc. So when I have free time I HAVE to process firewood no matter if it is 100° or 0°.

I did take a 4 hr nap today!!!! It is nice to rest every so often. Haven't decided if I am going to split tomorrow or not. I want/need to but don't want all my extra time with the boys to be all about splitting and stacking firewood. Getting paid $200 yesterday did put a smile on their face though. The jury is still out on whether they think it is worth it or not. Young ones have no concept of money. Hopefully, they will appreciate it someday.
 
Hope some is coming this way...
We got a teaser bout 4:00 this morning... Beans will live another few days... Ready for round 2!

+1 I'm in the same boat both time-wise and about not wanting to waste all of the time I could be enjoying my children's lives cutting wood. I love running saws, but they'll only be kids once and it's going all too fast...:(

Anybody out there dove hunting tomorrow? Sept. 1 is opening day in OK. I'm not, they sure are good eating though.
I will be later this afternoon. They've been flying around the house and I aim to take a few down...

Got about 8/10 of an inch here last night according to the Boss and the rain gauge... No puddles though.
