2 Hours, 3 Pickup Trucks, And 5 Able Bodies Later ...

Everybody got this.... already cut (most of it), just had to be loaded up, driven home, and unloaded...




The Dixette did most of the unloading..



Mostly pine & locust....



We're tired

Just keep thinking of all those btu's being put to good use

Sweet! Good for you getting the wood. That would make anyone happy and having a pretty lady throwing wood off the truck would be tops too!

Great job!

Woman power!

Nice job Dix.

Pays to have horsie friends. This was from a local horse farm that had 20+ trees come down during Sandy. It's 5 miles from the house.

What was nice was that everyone helped load everybody's trucks, made the work go a lot faster.

We haven't even begun.BUT, like I told the Dixette, next year, they will have seasoned wood to throw in the 30 when they install it. In the mean time, they'll be using the 13 to supplement their heat.

I'm gonna need more pallets

Nice! That's a whole lot of btu's

I'm gonna need more pallets [/quote]


Good problem to have! nice work!

Nice scrounge Dix!

Good work! Glad to see you got some free BTUs! Hope you get more and hope all stay safe while the clean up and recovery gets done on the Island and elsewhere.

Too bad we are so far apart, I could give you all you want. Nice score, enjoy

Heres Your Sign

LOL Thanks !

Now to get it split !!

Nice BTU's there.

Nice pile of wood.
No gym membership needed
Splitting party tomorrow ?

Splitting starting tomorrow.... the Dixette is off from work. I'll hit the splitter next Sunday.

No, no gym membership needed !!

Nice score, and it's nice to have helping hands as well!

WOW how many truck loads was that ? Good job on the haul lots of btu's.

Hi Dix;

Who will be running the saw when someone cuts the rounds down to size?

That is a chit load of wood.....nice score !!

Wondering the same thing.
Great score Dixie.
"We haven't even begun". Does this mean you're going back for more, or referring to the work you've already made for yourselves?

2 loads in the F250. If you are looking at the front of the shed, the longer stuff to the right (oak & maple) is stuff I picked up on my home from work during the week.

The Dixette is running the saw. I don't do saw any more.

There's more where this came from. I just want to get this processed & stacked before we bring more in, and piss off one of the neighbors more than he is by this score

Dixette giving you the finger in the 2nd pic?

Do I see some Locust in those pics?

yep...
that's a fine load of wood there. how much do you typically burn in a year? how many more truckloads are you planning on hauling? be nice to get ahead while its available. locust seasons pretty quickly and all my pine seasoned in 6 months.(i diligently covered it when it rained ..which wasn't often this summer) as stated above, if we were closer we'd surely swing by and give you a hand.
