I split and stacked four loads of Beech today, picture 1884 & 85 is what's left of the Beech pile. I'm hoping for two face cord so we'll see how much we have after I'm done.

It was a great day for it, not many bugs at all. When I came in it was 60 degrees.

I finished splitting and stacking the two face cord of Beech but before that I cleaned the filters and checked the oil in the MTD 20 ton.

Pictures 1894 & 1895 are what's left of the Beech pile and the Maple.

Here's an update picture of the wood yard. Its a horrible mess but it'll have to do for now. I've got the pile of walnut and elm on the left that I'll be splitting on the next few days. If you look in the back left, you can see a couple large walnut logs. There are some logs up to 12 to 14 feet long along with some milling scraps. The four center rows are silver maple, willow hybrid, hackberry, and elm. The2 left two rows are all ash, along with 3 more rows of ash that are behind these. We've got 9 ibc totes now. Hoping for a busy week of selling.

I moved one face cord today and then washed the truck, I didn't have any bugs around today but with the warmer temps coming in, that will change.

I'll finish off the stack that's behind the one I started today and then finish the stack in the back.

I finished up the stacking in area number 3 that holds ten face cord, eight face cord are ready to burn this year. I had some left in picture 1901 so I pulled off the tarp and put it in with some seasoned Ironwood. I also moved just under a face cord of Ironwood too fill that stack up, I still need about twenty rounds and that will be done.

The rest of the prime rib will taste great again tonight.

The wife and I spent the long weekend cleaning up the yard at the cabin after felling a large Maple and Paper Birch. Not sure of what kind of Maple it was, though center was brown in color. The birch is under the Maple tree. They needed to come down to make room for the well guys rig. Yes a new well, very exciting. Looks like a couple cords to split sometime in the fall. This wood will be for 2025/26. Right now I'm on the 5 year plan burning 3 cords a year. DSC_2698.JPG

I moved some shoulder season wood (white pine) from the area we burned out of this year to the area we'll burn from this year. I'll finish the stack tomorrow with some pine that has been split and covered for a year.

I'll also clean up the area ( pic 1907 ) and get another six face cord in there which will put us two years ahead for our shoulder season wood.

We have 51 face cord of hardwood stacked with hopefully another 3 that needs splitting and stacking. We should have room for another 12 face cord of hardwood. Once I'm done with the shoulder season wood, we'll have 12 face up.

After this weekend, I'll start back up on c/s/s. First up will be bucking up two face cord of Pine that was cut in 2018, after that is done, I'll split and stack that. I'll get some pictures Monday.

When I'm done stacking the two face cord of Pine, I'll start splitting and stacking the rest of the Beech (1894 ) and Maple (1895 ).
