Bought Some Logs!

Had a load of logs delivered to the house yesterday, First time since we moved to the new place 3 years ago that I have had to buy wood but I haven't had time to get into our wood lot lately and this should speed up things and get us a year ahead again. Nice stuff mostly hard maple not huge stuff either, so I will be starting on 2014-15 wood supply today, Pics to follow!

Here are the photos promised, I cut and split a face cord or so last night after work, hope to have it all done by the end of August, this is 1/2 the load, the other half is over at my neighbors, we help each other out so we decided to split this load of logs to get us both ahead a year or so. The last one has my helper Cody resting after helping me stack the fresh split wood

Seems to be really good wood, Mostly maple, but there are a few ash and cherry logs mixed in there, Came from a logger that is cleaning up a blow down/Tornado site from over a year ago. This should be plenty seasoned in 15 months in IMHO . The maple that I will be burning this year has been stacked since last May/June 2012 so I am sure that we will be fine with that, Just for my information cause I have only been burning about 5 years or so- how long do you season your wood Mr. Bunion? Isn't a year or more good for ash cherry and maple?? We have some oak stacks going on 2 years that we will be using come Feb when it really gets cold.
