This is all that was left after deer season last year:

So I started spltting some stuff that was already cut:

Wife was "bone fishing"! :laugh:


more HAHAHAHAHA

I lived down there a coupla times. As places in the USA go, it is rather unique.

Riches to rags story! Guess what fuzzy guy here turned down a job diving for mel fischer? I did get to go out in one of his custom drogue boats though.

Living down there I had to finally make an executive young guy decision, did I want to be a sea guy/diver/fisherman/ live on a boat forever whatever dude, all that scene, or go back to the rural countryside? Cool breezes, woods, trees, hills, mountains won out.

No idea how much is in this pile. It's 7 feet high in the middle, and about 12 feet wide at the base.

Assuming that it was piled in a uniform cone, with a 7 foot height ('h') and 12 foot diameter (6 foot radius 'r'), the volume ('V') would be :

EDIT: had to correct math mistake - 12 foot diameter = 6 foot radius !)
= 264 cubic feet. Divided by 128 cubic feet in a full cord, yields 2+ full cords (6+ face cords). Of course, your pile is more rounded than a cone, so there is probably more.

My father in law came over, looked at it for 2 seconds and said it was over 8.

Does this mean I have to admit he was right? :laugh::cry:

Well, ya, the guy already proved he makes good decisions. He married your mom in law, which produced your wife.

Two seconds to get that close is real dang good. Can't be his first wood rodeo.

Yeah, but can you convert cords, to cubes, to miles, to gallons, to millimeters, to acres, to rods, to chains, to teaspoons, to horsepower, to watts, to newton meters, to pounds, to lightyears, to BTU's??? Well???? We're waiting! :popcorn:
