“GRAB YOUR WOOD NOW!”

We are splitting wood today- it’s our last day after three weeks.

I came across some particularly awesome white and red oak- straight logs perfectly huge with no knots. I took eight or nine cords home and stacked it. Glad that’s over because each row took 90 minutes over the course of a week. Even just taking up the debris took an hour... BUT ITS DONE. For the entire heating season.

Its going to take two months for this stack to season enough to burn, perfect timing for heating season.

Notice the nicely stacked ends that hold the rest of the row in place? Takes careful work to do this so it does not cave in, fall over... hurt someone.

​When you have a wood pile outside, DO NOT COVER IT! Insects, mold, rot decay the wood.

Buy firewood NOW. In the summertime. That way you know that by the time you need it, the wood is thoroughly dry and ready to burn.
