Probably the latter along with some of the former. After originally responding to a Craigs List ad back in September on taking down some trees I finally got the OK from the owner and went there last Saturday. A friend and I cut and removed 4 tall trees. This amounted to 2 heaping truck loads of rounds one of which we split and stacked before going back for the 2nd truck load. I'm guessing we'll have just under 1.5 cords when it's all done. I'll try to remember pics when it is all stacked. 2 days later I'm still sore! My first dealings with hickory, this stuff is much heavier than cherry and silver maple which is what I seem to find more often than not.
This one score may amount to a lot of wood for me. The home owner association president came over to chat with us and wanted to know if we would be interested in all the trees that were felled recently when they put in new power lines. Limbs have already been chipped so it's just bucking and loading mostly oak and ash trees. I'll gladly trade a few more weeks of soreness for all that wood!
