At some point, the number no longer matters. It's just fkng cold.wood cutting weather next week.
I use to use cardboard produce bins for lambs when it got real cold. When I was done with the everything went to the burn pile. Sheep are gone now and I don't miss going to the barn 3-4 times a night to check for new borns in single digit temps. Good luck with kidding. Hope they all hit the ground running.The weather has been crazy here. Snow 2 weekends in a row with warms ups after. 5 degrees last Sunday morning, then up to 50 on Tuesday. Then rain and flooding. Then it froze up solid again. Our road was a sheet of ice from where the flooding went down and instantly froze on the road. The field is a ice a foot or more off the ground with no water under it now. Looks pretty cool, but it's cold.
This weekend I hope to haul lots of wood out. The ground should be frozen good. Just in time for really cold next week. And of course a few goats could have kids anytime. Fun...I have to get some pens put up in the garage and get them inside before the real cold. Normally we like to have goat kids around March or April, but the buck had other plans last August/September.
And into the stove.Busted up some of the mulberry I hauled in last week. 13-14 % mc so it came right into the shop View attachment 699276

Last winter seems like I did it for near 3 months everyday! All what you get used to.that's interesting and I will have to take ur word for it. I had thot most up in ur area, those temps used elec block heaters and had plug ins all up n down main street in town, too. I know some over in Whithorse area and they have to plug in during winter at those temps... and say, never drive out of town alone... for safety. engine trouble late in afternoon, and not a good place to be at -40F that night...
Just get the 36. You'll be pi$$ed if you don't .Right or wrong I bought a new “firewood” saw for some of those really big down trees I get given to me. It’s the top one in the picture. New on shelf, 2015 build. Ships from Greece Monday morning. It’s the top one. Recommendations on a bar, 32”, 36”,?
Dayum! I thought the 7900's would put down about anything?Right or wrong I bought a new “firewood” saw for some of those really big down trees I get given to me. It’s the top one in the picture.

No mosquitos!Never thought I would be sling chainsaws at the end of January . . .
Am told we are getting your heatwave here starting the next few days now. Typical - you steal our pavs, phar lap, crowded house, and give us heatwaves and try to return Russell Crowe.I really can't wait for Summer to be over this year, well and truly over this bloody heat, more to come for the next few days by the sounds of it.
