Oh, here's one we haven't seen yet this year. You share pictures of your wood with other guys on the internet.

When you enjoy looking at pictures of other guys wood on the internet.

You just know that 128 cubic feet is 4x4x8 impressing your non burning friends.

When you have more equipment for wood processing than yard care

Caught me.

When the term "morning wood" takes on a whole new meaning...

When you spend more time researching and corresponding on hearth.com than any other website.

When your cats shed more in the winter than summer.

Your six year old daughter says,"Looks like we got some good secondaries going."

When a wind storm dumps a tree, missing your house by inches, you don't worry about the house, you're thankful for the free wood!

When you're uncle comes home from vacation to discover a probe thermo installed in his stack, with written burning instructions for his new EPA stove

When you practice your axe swing like your golf swing.

When your neighbor comes over and asks "Do you have a wood fetish?"

You walk in the front door coming home from work and its cool in the house
And the family says, " the fire starter is home, start us a fire" which happened to me today, put a big smile on my face...

Your furnace hasn't kicked on all day even though it's only 35 degrees out.

When your kids figure out they could have a 4 bedroom 2 bath- playhouse...between your wood stacks.

When, as the holidays approach, strangers ring your bell to ask "How much for a couple of days worth of firewood?"

Hi !!

<<<< The real Dixie Eyed Hustle

My best bud has an APHA gelding named "Talk About Sonny. A few years ago we're at an APHA (American Paint Horse Association) show in Connecticut. Dixie is 3 years old of pissed off filly at the end of the lead before our first halter class (8 AM Saturday, a 2 day show), dancing and prancing her then 800 pounds around like bouncer in one of BB's Honky Tonks . My bud says "try this, do that, get after her" ( like I'm not already!! ) I shoot her a look and say "Easy for you to say, your standing there Talking About Sonny, and I'm over here Doin' The Dixie Eyed Hustle !!"

Love our "girls weekends away" !!

Dixie



First ride...



Back to your annual real wood burner thread !!

You hear about neighbors telling each other "when will he ever in his lifetime burn all that wood?"

When you go back out in the garage to look at the nice used Englander 30 NC that you just bought off of craigslist, just one more time before going to bed. Dreams do come true. Man she burns really sweet!
