    The sun and dry weather here in CT is showing no mercy on my hickory stack.

    Great picture.

    My wife thinks I'm mad when I open up our woodshed doors (not in the same league as you guys with log stacks - still I can dream) "just to have a look" with our two young boys.

    Looking like it's drying very well. When we have these low humidity, warm dry days firewood really cracks open and lets the moisture out.
  4. Looks wonderful !!

    You guy's should live in Colorado, when I first started getting my wood laid up for winter I was all freaked out that it had to season for a year, the humidity is so low and the sun shines so much that everybody cuts their wood in the spring with the attitude that it will be ready to go after drying all summer

    You can usually get away with splitting pine and drying in 6 months or so here in Wyoming too. Year dried stuff is still pretty nice though. Of course mentioning pine in a thread with such a nice shot of HICKORY is almost blasphemous. :)
    I'm going on a cruise to the east coast in mid september. I've been trying to devise a way to stash a load of good hard wood in my luggage to bring back with me. J/K
