No pics of splitting this weekend, mostly just clearing brush. I split one atv trailer full of wood and put it beside my cabin. I was trimming around my pond and the walk behind trimmer I was using shook itself apart. Im thinking Ill go pick up a Stihl FS94 R brush cutter tomorrow... two more atv trailers full of split wood and Im done until the fall... or so I say.

I did take one pic of a lake when my damn GPS led me down an atv trail when driving from one property to another:

Here it is June already and I'm still not done for the year.

Got about half of the oak rounds busted and stacked today. Was gonna do more but my back was having none of that. Guess it had had all the amusement it could stand for one day. The mound of little stuff is starter wood, I'll put that on top or all together somewhere I can get to it.

Finally got some time on Sunday to do some splitting with the newe splitter. This pile is about 18 logs that I bucked up and then split. I still have another 20 or so back out in the woods that I need to skid out. Have to swap out the backhoe for the winch first. The backhoe is an absolute godsend for my back!

Had time to do a little splitting on Saturday (when I wasnt mowing/trimming). The sun was out so the bugs died down a bit.

Got the rest of the maple split & stacked today. Sure glad's that off my dance card for another year. :)

Pulled the splitter around to the other side where the oak rounds are stacked. Will get to those later.

That's a good technique of lifting your splitter up a little higher. Car ramps,,huh! who'd of thunk it...

All I could do is toss out a few "likes" today 'cause I've been a slacker when it comes to making firewood!!
Looking at the last few pages has ALMOST,,not quite, but almost inspired me to get the chainsaws out..
"COPY THAT"!! just way to wet to even try to get into the wood lot yet! not been slacking any, but sure have not been adding much to the pile/stacks so far this year either.... some of our fine members are sure on their way to a warm winter!! out of the few loads of pine I managed to scrounge its just enough to keep my interest up while splitting and stacking here and there. still have a long way to go ?lol

"Too wet",,Chucker, I hope things dry up enough that you can get out and make little ones out of big ones when you want,,Me?? it's them daggone fishin' poles that have been keeping me busy and I haven't even been freezing any of 'em when I keep them..
