I hope this doesn't cost me my Scroungers Certification...
Saw an add on CL a couple days ago. Turns out it was a local golf course that's removed 40 ash and maple trees and claims to have cut many of the logs to firewood length! Have it all stacked up in a pile right in the parking lot at the service garage.
I can't believe I'm doing this, but I'm taking a pass. I already have all of this years and next years wood onhand and am promised enough for the third year within the next month and am also very busy with work right now. I'd like to get some of it anyway and sell it next Fall, but don't want that much wood stacked up. I hope I don't come to regret this...
AAAK! EEEK! primo wood, wicked easy access, already cut to length..yep, you will regret it!
Heck, I could cut a cord a day the rest of my life off the property here and not even come close to running out, but..already cut and just load, I'd drive a reasonable distance for that in lieu of felling/bucking and manhandling it out of the woods here. If I was scrounging.
I want to be a decade ahead, plus maybe sell some.... I am a few years ahead, and around five if I don't sell any right now, and that is really just putzing with it once in awhile. I think I have only cut three afternoons this year so far. I had so much stacked and needing splitting, that's all I did.
After the Georgia GTG I should be mostly caught up with my fall chores here, mowing has slowed down a lot, so back to cutting wood. Hope to add another year or two to the stacks before real cold weather, and mud season.
