Scrounging Firewood (and other stuff)

[square1]

My snow piles are plentiful! I shoulda parked the Rolla down at the bottom for perspective.

The straight side wall of the barn / workshop gives a good idea.

a friend of mine had a dog named Winston that had all 4 legs amputated. all my buddy could do was take him outside for a drag.

I bought one of those cowboy grills to set over my fire pit, we used it one time to cook burgers and hot dogs. Then it started raining and I think it has rain pretty much every weekend since.

I had to put mine out at the park in muskegon, they said no wood fires, it gets too hot .
You can take the coals right out of the woodburner and use them in there this time of the yr.

No offense taken! I’ve found this to be the best way to cook bacon wrapped anything. The dripping fat off the bacon would make the open flame get pretty intense and not cook the shrimp all the way through.

A coworkers buddy picked up a band saw mill yesterday. I may go check it out this weekend if I can find time. Been on the 7 days a week work schedule again lately.

Update on this. My coworker ask him what he would pay for good mill logs and the guy said "I'm not paying for no ****ing logs theres people giving them away all the time". I'd have taken him logs if i found good ones for some boards but with that attitude i think I'll just turn it into firewood.

We maid steaks on the grill tonight. Still snow on the deck.

Perhaps you could ask if the shortsighted idjit has a metal detector

As far as I'm concerned he does. The band saw blade will let him know pretty quick. There a nice patch of black walnuts on my coworkers land that have probly only been seen by half dozen people there entire lives. We were gonna drop one and send it to him in 8'6" logs but that idea ended with his comments.

LOL! Reminds me of the guy standing on the lake shore eyeing an 18" x 16' half buried in a sandbar ash log 50' out in the lake down the beach a ways. He asked if I knew who owned that stretch of beach. He was going to ask for permission to pull the log out to cut on his mill. I told I didn't know but could bring him logs that size all day long and asked if he was interested. He responded he doesn't pay for logs. I just walked away. He was going to have more actual expense into retrieving that one log and milling it (think time invested and then sand in every crook & crevice plus if it had come from a yard on the lake shore probably a lot of metal) than it would have cost to buy 1/2 dozen from me.

Wheel fell off the snowthrower today. Works as a plow too, going forward (4HP Toro, with rubber paddles). Not so easy dragging it back to the garage.

So drive it back to the garage running forward instead of pulling it

Came home from the coffee meet in town, fixed breakfast, read paper and got all dressed up to retrieve a document at the bank, then go out in the county to check on a tree. WTF? 2 more inches of snow, wet and heavy. Pulled car out of garage and waited for 5 minutes for traffic to clear. solid stream of dtraffic both ways moving slow. Gave up and back in the house to do nothing the rest of the day.

What snow is down will still be there a week from today with maybe additions per the 7 day forecast.

Not much but my neighbor had a “red maple” and a mystery tree removed. The tree service put some limbs in my yard.

 

[Hinerman]

Pics of the mystery wood. Any ideas? Leaves were long and skinny.

 

[woodchip rookie]

Looks like a breed of maple?

That is the X27, best splitting axe I’ve tried. Not found anything that I can’t split with it and I’m 5’8” @ 145lb!
