Firewood Hoarders Club, LTD......

Same with my Pap......what a guy. He was taken WAY too early by cancer, I think about him and the advice he gave me every single day.....to this day I can still hear his voice and his laugh and man I wish I had some more time with him. I'd love to sit and chat, and to re-iterate how proud I am to be his grandson......

I'll see him again someday, I look forward to that day.......

Yup.Listened a lot to grandfathers,but wish I did more in the time they had here.They died when I was almost 9 & 13.But did listen a lot to my 10 uncles after that.Only 1 of them left now.Still ask Dad for his opinion on stuff,he mainly just watches me & smiles now.Probably thinks "Well it looks like he paid attention all those years ago after all....."

I'm sure they are all proud of you, Jon. You're a heck of a good guy, look forward to meeting you someday.

Oooops.... I edited my post,forgot the 2 husbands of Mom's 2 sisters...That makes 10,not 8 Well they say the memory is the first thing to go....

Thanks, Scott.I can see a whole bunch of us getting together for one helluva shindig (that's even better than a hootenanny people tell me...) one of these days if the financial & scheduling orbits all mesh at the same time...

I'm in I may be a Jersey boy, but been roasting and smoking pigs in my own built cookers for the last 30+ years, Tell me where to go, sounds fun!

Ok - i am ready to join this exclusive club. Just managed to sneak into the SWA (severe wood addict.)
Still not sure how much i will use as this will be my first season on 'wood' cant wait for May which will be the start of my burning season.

WOW! sweet load you got there and welcome to the club, I'm new to it to, but all are welcome as far as I know if you get excited over seeing a chain saw or a wood pile, " can be scary at times".... Theres this guy here on this forum, "who is supposed to get us stickers" for the club..................

Don't worry. I'm just so daggone busy. But I WILL get them.....I always follow through....

I know I had to bust your round items....... I want one for my truck and will "PROUDLY" display it!. The people down here will really be screwed up with that....., maybe they'll quit calling me a pirate, arrrrr.....

I think the only real way you can determine if you are a serious hoarder is at the end of burning season....not before

You know you got problems when you're still sitting at around 18 cord here at the house and youre sick to the stomach feeling like you are getting behind!!
.......where does that put me?

It puts you in the sick as chit club

About 7 cord behind me! And I just hit a mother load with the neighbor right behind me having multiple oak trees taken down as I write this (the sweet sound of chain saws running!).... and its all mine. heeheeeheee I am a sick man.....

I have about one less cord now C/S/S than I did in September, and I burned nearly 4 in that time. I should be back to 13 +/- cords in a month or so.

I'm just a social hoarder. I feel so....unprepared... in this club. We live in the city. Wood gives us good heat, but we use the fireplace (insert) about two evenings a week. Love it. We only burn 1/2 to 1 cord a year, but with 1 1/2 cords in the driveway, ready for next October, many of the neighbors think we are hardcore wood users.

Just had a neighbor come to the house today and ask to buy some wood for a party he's having tonight. Gona have a bonfire. I showed him my pile of ugly and shorts I use for the fire pit and let him take all he wanted. Just means I get to go cut more!

Righn now I;m a wood a holic and hope to be up to a btu processor soon.

I didn't cut too much for myself this winter. Maybe a cord for myself, but cut around 3 cord for the boy scout camp a couple weeks ago.....

I've got lots and lots of wood lined up, just have to finish my living room so I can go and cut it!!

That's awesome Scott, helping the boy's out. They camp out down here on the CG base as well. we give them all the cut limbs and "LOTS" of pallets for their fires.

Show 'em some of the stacks we have here.......they'll leave you alone for a long time.
Another cord, and I'll be back where I was last year before the burn season started.
More to come. Just gets easier once you get ahead.
Scotty, I take walks to the stacks every day with at least one of the dogs, and wish I could get cutting more ASAP.
I actually need almost 2 cord to finish the row I pulled from last year to fill the shed, then I'll need to do the same for the row that I pull from to fill it this year.
Been thinking about putting in another row too.
"Wouldn't ya' like to be a prepper too, be a prepper, drink Dr. Prepper". Wait, that's not right.

I think there's something to your sickness though...In the event of infrastructure failure, you can heat, cook and barter...you may be more prepared than sick...hey, I lived through Katrina and it can fall apart overnight, you know, especially nowadays...just sayin...it's still funny though...

Hey all, I made it I graduated from wood-a-holic to and offical cord hoarder...... I now have a full 8 cords on board ....... Scotty, we need those stickers! Hey I can help. send me a PM and we'll talk about it!

I'd like to join. currently just a social hoarder. Hoping to progress (regress?) to a cord-hoader by the end of the summer.

I'm getting my hoard on.Roughly 6 cords and got more to split and stack.

I officially made it into the BTU processor club this spring. I am moving along nicely with my therapy, I went into last season with 21 pallets and I will be going into next season with 23 3/4 pallets. I stack about 5' high so I believe I have more then twelve cords split and stacked.
