Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

[dancan]

Sure beats this, don't it Dan!

Well , you know ..... LOL
I lent the sled to a friend so he can haul his maple sap on his collection run .
I use a cut up plastic gas tank to haul from my piles to the house but the tractor and winch are king in the woods
Less trips per tree but a much longer reach so just as much walking ,,,,, And it's more betterer

Well wouldn't ya know it, it's snowin' again. At least those ugly, dirty brown spots of bare ground are all nice and white and clean looking again!

 

[dancan]

Yup ,same here Clint, we've got 5" to 6" on the way , oh yeah oh joy ....... I can't even get back to pick up what I've got cut let alone find it .
Ambull , I dunno , sometimes I wonder .......
Wudpirat , porky stories are OK in my book since it relates to wood and they're scrounging just like us LOL
Farmer Steve , why leave oak in the woods ? I couldn't do it just because I couldn't , just sayin .

 

[dancan]

Right here. See the front box for extra scrounge too?

The more I look at that the more I like it , polly hold 3/4 cord and I'd be havin room for a cooler

 

[mainewoods]

Yeah, the deer are still scroungin' too! There was another 15 standing on the hill waiting their turn.

 

[mainewoods]

And yes, my jeep is still in the same parking spot. That's where I park it so it doesn't interfere with the feeding lane.

 

[dancan]

I dunno bout that Jeep but I see dry wood in the barn LOL

 

[mainewoods]

That is my white ash "cardiac therapy" hand splitting pile. I'm back in the woods cuttin' sugar maple now. Plenty of exercise wading through the snow.

Glad to see things are coming along Clint !

it's startin to be farmin weather here. gonna be busy plowin and plantin the next month or so and the farm market keeps me busy all summer. i'm a winter wood warrior. no one is gonna bother that wood since it's on private property.

 

[mainewoods]

It pains me to admit it, but I four footed a bunch of standing dead pine the other day for shoulder wood. My little 3 week " vacation" put me behind some. 50 acres of oak,maple, beech and ash all around me and I'm reduced to cuttin' pine. What's this world coming too!

 

[mainewoods]

Not a wood snob, just makes more sense to cut hardwood when given a choice. Same amount of labor and effort whether it's pine or hardwood. Twice the BTU's when it's hardwood. Practicality not snobbery, in my book.

The wood is nice and all but I am more interested in where the farm market is. If I am in the area I would rather give money to someone I like versus someone I dont know.

 

[mainewoods]

Gotta love it .

You are supposed to relax your muscles when getting ready to shoot anyway... What's more relaxing than the mid-leak muscle release?
