I was going to guess from the bark and pic of the wood that it was decomposing Norway Maple.

Ash isn't as deep. After this stuff dry rotted it almost looks like Ash wood. I only had One double Ash on my property and the EAB got it 3-4 years ago. That's the one I made my throwing axe out of a piece of firewood I took off the porch.
Going to reload the wood stove now, haven't touched it since this morning when I shut the damper at 9.
It's just coals, I wouldn't need to do anything with it, but I want to get the temp up before I reload before bed, and time wise I will have large coals then if I don't reload now. I'll use shorter pieces so they burn up by then.

OK, let me explain inflation to everyone (I have a degree in accounting, over 30 years of auditing experience and I'm a retired Certified Fraud Examiner).
1) When you restrict energy production w/o reducing demand, you increase the price of energy, which increases the cost of producing and shipping everything else.
2) The Government can print money, but it cannot give it value. The only value our money has (collectively) is the value of the goods and services we produce. So, when you print money that does not result in an increase in goods or services, you create inflation.
3) Supply chain shortages caused by a lack of willing or qualified workers further exacerbates the problem.
See ... this is easy to understand!

It's Chestnut Oak, not Chestnut. I'll take some pics of it's brothers and sisters tomorrow. I had about 6-8 Red Oaks and 2 little White Oaks. The Red Oaks died of Oak Wilt, and the White Oaks were in the way of a building project.What kind of oak.
I just put a stick of maple on the bonfire pit. I made a couple cuts off each and and knew I wasn't going to be selling it and I have more than enough premium wood for us, so....
Chestnut Oak is usually dark in the middle and will not rot unless it is on the ground.
kinda seems like I heard

...maybe I missed something....

Yup , still cutting
Big sky day in December
Sure turned nice when the temps warmed a bit
But when I called it a day and went to leave
I found the one hole on that fairway that was't on the green Lol
Had to get a bit of help for that one .
Exactly, that's why I was so surprised when it dry rotted from the inside and never lost it's bark. I've got lots of Chestnut Oak already split and stacked for next year, and it looks nothing like this punky stuff.
Here's 3 Ash logs we put around my farmer friends spigot to keep people from backing into it. The brick wall is the perfect height for a loading dock. It might be 100 feet long with 1 phone pole and that spigot. Delivery people have knocked the spigot off several times.
Went back to the fairway to finish that cut , we went with my tall guy's rig just in case lol
Notice the hole mid right
Still a nice day
I have to get back there to delimb and dice up but it may be a couple of months before they want me in at the course once the rent a chipper again .

One more load before I closed out the day bucking more logs. Finished putting tools away, checking the woodburner, and closing up the coop just before dark.
Finished the blade. Need to get some leather to make a sheath

Burner of stored sunlight
Speaking of blades, I just ordered a Finnish Broad Axe from Seven Pines Forge. Should be fun to play with. This one is 5lbs with a 36" handle.

Yeah but the bums are spending too. And how??? They’re dealing with inflation too. And buying drugs. And buying toys.
With all the government freebees, free housing, free phones, free heat, free rent, free bussing, free food, they have their welfare checks to buy luxuries.
I went to the market today for dog food and rolls. I got in the lane for "14 or fewer items" behind a woman in one of the handicapped electric carts. When she started unloading the basket it was clear she had a lot more than 14 items.... Turns out she had 20 cans of 25 oz. beer and 8 cans of cat food. Then she wanted the items double bagged... Then the bags were too heavy so she wanted fewer cans in more bags. She kept getting in the way of the clerk and complaining about how he was doing things. When she said she could help he said "no I don't want your help." Then the Karen tells the clerk she didn't like his attitude. She seemed to walk and get around just fine too... That be_atch parasite Karen needed to be be_atch slapped into next Tuesday! Meanwhile the line was backed way up and they opened another lane and moved my line over there in order. She was still giving the clerk crap after I moved, checked out and was walking away. I had to bite my tongue to keep from engaging with her... I was so tempted to say "Come on Karen, move along..."
Don't know whether Branch Loggers have taken off at all in USA or Canada, but it is quite popular in parts of Europe.
I bought a machine here in UK and we use the loggings all the time instead of kindling, or down at the cabin in a BBQ or on the deck outside in a fire bowl, Very quick, dries in no time and makes use of stuff that would be otherwise left behind
Still use conventional firewood along side.
