too bad you forgot the period at the end...could have held the record for worlds longest sentence:numberone:
 
Hello, neighbor. I live just up Lake Drive in Lino Lakes, and scavenge and burn whatever I can find as well. Nice to run into another enthusiast, however I do not have nearly the time to cut all that acreage, nice work!
 
I hate to say it, but 421 cords all cut and split by hand on top of land maintenance for free in 3 yrs? That's nearly 12 cords a month for 36 months straight. That seems a little far fetched.
