Nice catch NYlife! How do you guys come across this stuff anyway? I search and search up here and am lucky to come across a pile of a tree next to the road. I then buck it up, bring it home and split and stack it. I am surprised some of you don't have it dropped in your yard for free!

No comments from you Infinitymike!

Where NYlife and I live, not too many people burn, or if they do, they don't seem to do much scrounging. I have seen wood sit roadside for months, even years. I've been driving by a pile of Red Oak for two years now. It is a little harder to get to so I have making easier scrounges, but I bet it will rot there if I don't get it.

Just wait til NYlife has a truck. He's gonna have a whole yard full of wood.

I think you are right. There are quite a few wood burners in our area. I imagine in your area and all larger population areas, you probably have about 1 in 5000 people burning wood. Just a guess, obviously. But when I lived on the outside of a "larger" city, about 300,000, not a whole lot of them burn. I hate to think of all the wasted wood when that many yard trees are cut down and just thrown somewhere by the tree service.

I think that we suburban wood burners probably have the easiest time getting wood. There is more of an urban lifestyle here. Fireplaces are mostly for looks a few nights a year and most people are working so darn hard just to afford living here that they don't have time for or interest in processing wood.

I found this load on my way to work. They were cutting the tree down . I got a landscaper that drops wood off after he takes them down so he doesn't have to pay to dump it

You eye is getting well trained for finding fire wood.
You're even smelling it out.
Next, you'll be hearing a chain saw running & be on your way to another scrounge .

Nice score of "primo" wood
