Ok I know that oak firewood is generally passed on to grandkids because it takes that long to season, but would this be an exception?
 
Nice score, BTW. Good to have close family.

Yep.
 
Now that's my kind of country, and some nice oak to boot.
 
Looks good Walker. That one's been around awhile. What part of Ohio ?
 
Nice score, looks like 35's (35 splits per round)! Beautiful country, too!
 
Wow - can I come bow hunt with ya if I help split and stack some firewood? I can make you a nice set of fire place tools????

Nice place you have there and we from up north are wishing our DNR would manage things like you do in Ohio - you guys are producing some awesome bucks!!
 
Great views . . . thanks for sharing.
 
She's a Nice One! _g

Ready to burn today. The wettest of it has gotta be under 18%. When the bark is gone, it's pretty dry. Would be even drier if still standing.
 
That was a big ol oak for sure. And you buddy does very nice work. That splitter is a beauty. The only thing missing is an outfeed table.
 
Looks like that one needed to come down.
