As some of you may remember, I stack my firewood on old vinyl siding. It works pretty good, no weeds can grow up through, and if you make your siding base a little wider than the wood there's very little grass trimming to do... and it's a darn good moisture barrier.
Yesterday I learned another advantage of using vinyl siding.
I decided to get ahead of the game and move some more wood in the house, rather than wait until sometime next month when I'm sure to run short (And, before the snow covered it today)
Even under several inches of snow your firewood will not freeze to vinyl siding... you can just reach down a pick it right up. Ice and snow flat does not stick to that vinyl, it wipes clean with a touch.
I also learned another lesson.
When vinyl siding is covered with snow, it's slipperier than greased owl $h!t... and evidently you need to slip and fall on your azz three friggin' times before you catch on to that little secret. I must be gettin' old... my neck is so stiff this morning I can't tip it back far enough to finish a cup of coffee
