Got home Sunday early afternoon from some dog training. Two doors down across my street there's a boom and a guy with a chainsaw. So I unload the dogs, my gear, and proceed down to check it out. 15 minutes of watching with the neighbor next door, the guys took off
!! They left the wood on the ground, and about 15 feet of trunk standing on the two trees.
So 5 minutes later, I leave the one neighbor and knock on the door of the neighbor who had the trees taken down. I asked her if the wood was spoken for. She didn't know, but said the tree guys would be back the next day. I thanked her and said I'd try and catch them.
They didn't show up until about 3:00PM yesterday. So I hurried down there while they were chipper/shreading the small stuff. When they got done with that, I asked the "big guy" if the wood was spoken for. He said, "as long as were working here, you can take all you want. So I ran back got my truck and loaded up the stuff I could handle easily. Made two trips and probably got a face cord, maybe 1/2 cord of some sort of cherry according to the tree guy. Would've loved to get the bigger stuff, but these two guys were machines about cutting and loading wood in their truck
Free and close is good This'll put me over 6 cords scrounged since Feb. I need more pallets now!!
