Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

[Deleted member 150358]

Going through some stuff and found this. Not sure whether to use it or set it aside as a collector.

Not sure if it was for wood or ice to tell the truth.

Got some big hard Maple and Cherry along with some soft Maple and Ash. I cut it to 12' lengths and put them in the trailer, 4 loads total, I had to cut the Maple and Cherry to 6' pieces cuz I couldn't lift them into the trailer

Got it all cut and split, I cut it all 24" and I had a buddy give me two loads of Pine and Poplar.

Quick search on eBay didn't see this type. Guess either way have to hang on to it. Most of the eBay ones appear to be reinforced with gold thread er something.

TWINS!!! My Twins arrived today! OK, so they are not identical twins.

One has a little time on it, then was ported, the other was ported new.

One was shipped from within the State a while ago, but somehow took a detour to NC before arriving safely. The other was shipped from far away but arrived quickly and on time.

Ironically, they both arrived within a half hour of one another (from different carriers).

I was busy as heck and it was raining when they both arrived, but then I caught up with my workload and the weather cleared and was even real warm, so I found a few minutes to put B+Cs on them and fuel them up and make a few cuts with each. I liked them both so much I did not want to stop cutting, but time was short, I have another appt tonight, so a few cuts with each and I had to call it quits! But … I'm

I bought one exactly like that at an auction near Baraboo Wis where the Ringling Bros circus was held. One man seriously told me it was for herding elephants. I think he was full of elephant doo doo.

Now elephant herding makes sense! I'll keep it around. Might be useful when herding dinosaurs out of the yard!

Wish I had a tractor! (and a place to drive it, store it, use it, . . . )

Just shuttered all the schools statewide through the end of the month...

If there was panic, it will be a frenzy now...

Are you the member in Glennside, Pa?

I’m right down 476s in Havertown. My wife and I are both teachers. She’s in Montgomery County(hardest hit county in PA) and I teach in Delaware County. We are both closed for two weeks.

Just got word that the Children’s Hosptial of Philadelphia (CHOP) Doctor who treated a bunch of patients in Mont Co and unknowingly had it, died of COVID-19 post diagnosis. This stuff is no joke. Makes sense to close schools were you have a daily assembly of 500+people EVERYDAY.

I don’t like how you can’t see a members location anymore. Gives you a sense of where/what they are dealing with in terms of trees/work.
