Brother is coming over to help me split/stack all the firewood that had accumulated on my driveway. Only problem is my garden cart has a flat and I don't have an inner tube that size on hand. So we're just splitting. Had hoped to eliminate one step of handling, but that's the way it goes. New tire/tube ordered and should be here Friday. I look for tarps to cover the split wood. We have a little snow on the way and I hate to have to handle wet wood.

i guess i ended up with about 1/4 or so scrounging the neighborhood yesterday. good enuff for my needs. guess that makes about close to 3... 3 1/2 cords i got here at my camp. some to split, some to burn....some to stack, too!



no wood, no fire!

And no one seems to be awake enough to realize that the population of top predators should be controlled.

I think the "protected" birds of prey around here are decimating the rabbit and grouse populations. I see more hawks and owls than ever before.

Buddy has a sweet judge, he's the original owner$$$$$$.
Not sure if it's at his old place(his son owns the house now), if so it's about a half mile away. It's a black one with the various colored stripe down the side. Been a while since I saw it last, but he had just had it completely redone .
I think it's like this one.

Sad incident fir sure!!!
95% of the time. Polar bear WILL hunt you! By far the most aggressive of the North American bear species! They are also running out of habitat and food sources due to climate change.

What about the post about climate change.
Maybe it's because we've stopped hunting them and the population has grown.

Oh yeah, it also weighs a lot more, which is why I said you'd need a bigger truck/ trailer .
