Snagged another load of a different pecan tree (two small hackberry rounds) and the rest of what I could move from the first pecan tree that they finished cutting the base of.

I agree; sycamore is difficult to split and ties up too much time.

I'm sure I will be wishing for your summer weather when we are in 100+ degree heat index, 90+% humidity, and mosquitos bugging the heck out of us when summer gets here, ha!

I pronounce it more like pah-con.

Found a nice pecan tree down, mostly cut up to manageable size rounds yesterday. Loaded up a truckload of smaller rounds and this morning brought the trailer to get the bigger rounds. Easy scrounge, close to work.

We don't have invasive iguanas here; it was referencing the areas the cold weather would extend to. The iguana dropping warning was isolated to just Florida.

Use it for bonfire wood. I pass on gum and learned my lesson on sycamore as well.

Picked up these loads on four different trips home after work. We had a hurricane come thru in July and these were all on the sides of the road, just had to cut some down to size at the house and will split when it cools off a bit here. All water oak and some live oak limbs.

My friend and I split an Elm with his hydraulic splitter that fell into my backyard. It was a little more work to split than oak or pecan, but I burned some fires with it last winter and liked it. This will be two years it has been c/s/s and I'm planning to burn it all this winter.

What type of oak? The bark looks like it could almost be pecan.

Is that live oak pieces with the resurrection fern; I see you are in Texas. We have a lot of live oak in Louisiana but I mainly just use the limbs from these oaks.

There are some large rounds we need to cut down to size to fit in the splitter. We will double check for any metal. That piece should fit in with no further cutting down. Thanks for the head's up.

Above, found a tree company taking down some nice red oak and some elm and water oak mixed in as well. And below some live oak limbs from another tree company. This will be great burning in a couple of years! Going to start splitting this tomorrow now that there is a break in the rain.

Load of Pecan wood.

Red oak is a good two seasons to be ready. Live oak is three from my experience. Well worth the wait for the heat value. I don't sell it though.
