After that I’ld be moving, to Antarctica.
I have some rounds that size that have been on the rack for 2 years or better and the middle is still around 18%. I need to find me some dead mulberry.Don't pass up the smaller dead limbs Bobby. They can be almost dry enough to burn now. Cut this about a week ago and around 10% moisture now.

That's not gonna be an easy fix!View attachment 721919 Wasn't a good day for scrounging so some buddies and I got together to do some shooting. View attachment 721921 Then this happened behind my grandparents house.

They evacuated all the houses on the hill. The pic is from my grandparents back yard. There 2 houses down from it.Ouch! Better get it back together before the spring rains arrive. Looks like it could threaten the house. Best of luck.
Well, if my Dad were still alive he would have turned 100 today. Surly part of the Greatest Generation, he grew up during the depression, was in the reserves when WW II broke out, was 1 of only 2 guys who were still in the unit and returned at the end of the war (all the rest were replacements) (771st Tank Destroyers). When the War was over he didn't get to come home, since he spoke both Italian and German fluently, he helped them document the stories of the Concentration Camp survivors.
He returned home a fallen down drunk, but somehow recovered and (while working full time) went to school at night and first got his Accounting Degree, then his Law Degree, graduating with honors from NYU. He was a workaholic the rest of his life, but always put family first.
Some of his favorite sayings:
Quality will be remembered long after the price paid is forgotten.
Handsome is as handsome does.
Mother Nature gives you the first 40 years, after that you better work on it.
Whether you are rich or poor, it is nice to have money.
Pick the lean horse for the long race.
Thanks for sharing. That was a great generation. Now, We have to deal with the Snow flake generation. :-(Well, if my Dad were still alive he would have turned 100 today.
