Today my neighbor had 3 trees taken down. I scrounged 2 truck loads in between my landscape project today. Maybe I'll get the rest tommorrow. I'll pass on the pine tho I have 2 cord of pine and 1 still yo split. My parents and wife say I need meetings.... I am addicted :)

The maple should season in one year but the oak I understand takes 2-3 years of seasoning, take all the wood you can it's like money in the bank.

Tell the wife you went to a meeting and they said the only cure was to start drinking or chasing women and tell her it's her choice !!
