Well... the pile grew by a good amount of no split wood, and i have a good sized pile of bucked rounds to split. and i had fun running a saw so F*** the cold! 
I'll prescribe some Tanqueray gin followed by a couple of pints of Wychwood Hobgoblin for that cold Neil. And have work on speed dial for a sick day.i feel dead....half a tank through the ickle saw and shifting some buked rounds from 1 and 1/2 tanks yesterday (so that's 500ml, or about a pint total, small saws don't drink much) ...what a hero eh? a hero....with an absolute stinker of a cold. i speak and alternate between Barry White and Mickey mouse sounds. Anyway, I hurt in many many places....most places....places i didn't know about....what a hero eh!
Was it yellow inside?
Nope locust. I looked at the piece of bark I sat on it to get the pic and see my mistake. There are big cherry,mulberry, and ash close by. That reading is at the middle of a section of the trunk. Split it and couldn't get a reading over 16%.
How many of these dead ash trees you think we could turn into firewood in 5 days lol. There whole driveway is a kill zone in my opinion and they dont even realize.
Finished up my share of red oak that we drug out with the backhoe. Split around half with the maul. Need to stack, I hate stacking. Hopefully dry this week and I can go back to work on that big white oak.
Still dry so I finally got the yard done, enjoyed a Yuengling and sitting here watching the new members of the family.
Very nice...Finally finished my trailer project. I can't wait to start chucking firewood in it!

there closeingon this property in 10 days. I was told anything on the ground is fair game if I can get it out in that time.
Thought I was done after this.
Then I found a good sized ash top and decided it need to come home to. This may be the last time the old dodge sees wood hauling duty.
This one is 5x13. Yeah a trailer is a pain to get into most back yards
Who says we don't...
This place is like a Jim Beam sponsored AA meeting.Who says we don't...
lmao.
Firstly, that's just showing off.
I find the day the a nearby lake association, with big wooded lots, has their brush pickup days and there's usually larger pieces to be found. I also go the dump, where people dump off their brush and find plenty to cut. Last year, I found a guy near me on Craigslist just looking to get rid of wood. I helped him out, paid him with some beer, and got about 2.5 full cords out of it. I burn about 5 full in a winter; so that was a good day.
