He's young, he can take a beating.

Generally speaking, I'm not much for liquor, but nothing beats a good Bloody Mary- poolside- if you're starting early...
If I'm drinking Bloody Mary's I'm usually more heavy on the bloody and light on the "merry". I don't
start early, I just start whenever the mood strikes me.

Not exactly going to be firewood, but it'll sure make some nice planks, about 400 board feet I hope. Cedar from a newly cut virgin forest, the biggest one is close to 300 years old. I need a magnifying glass to age it properly !

Looks like that trailer was fun to pull home!
Nice looking load. I like cedar. We don't get much around here. We have a few left on the property, probably
30-40 years old. We had more but the ice got them several years ago.

You know it ! Good thing I had a tailwind going home too ! And with no spare, there were no chances to be taken either. Had I had a spare, I'd have also loaded the biggest section of 8' that's still out there, along with the 4 or 5 foot butt end near the trunk. I was already way too heavy as it was, and I'll be going back there for hunting anyway. They'll come home, just not at the same time.

another nice row
Just finished toting back another big row of swamp wood, some red oak. That's four heavy tractor tote boxes in this stack and that pile of uglies and smalls on the right there. Those big chunks on the top are about all this boy can heave up. The ones on the left came pre split when she hit the ground.

Today's scrounge
This whole load was from 10 rounds. When I got there, I spotted 2 big piles of smaller rounds/ branch wood-- maybe 3 cords worth. I asked the guy "whatcha doing w/ that?" He says " keeping a little for the fire pit, but you can have the rest".

Wood for a wood fired maple syrup evaporator. (sap house / sugar house / sugar shack)

Sap house or sugar wood is what I burn in my maple syrup evaporator. It's the limb wood and saplings that are too small for the OWB. That small stuff is rocket fuel for the evaporator! :msp_smile:
