free for the taking and this is only two loads home there are probably six or seven more, all the length have been down for two or three years, going to make a great addition to next winters stacks

Wow! Nice score. 
I think I see Birch and Maple. What is the big one on the right top? I should know that horizontal log in the center with the flat, cracked bark...seen that before.

Aspen! You'll have a lot of soft punk wood there if it has been down for 3 years!
loading the big stuff isn't that bad if you have a strong friend and a desire to sit by the fire in minus 40 weather
yes there is more to come, since it has startred to lightly rain here a planned morning with mr. fiskars and the nearly full wood shed has been put on hold and instead i will venture out with the truck and bring another load home.

Lots of work to do there yet CageMaster. Hopefully you'll find not too much punk. The small stuff might not be too good but most of those larger logs look okay yet. Good luck.
Not crazy about poplar, but hey, free is free! That's a pile of wood too, that'll keep ya busy for a while!
got the third load home this afternoon, fired up the saw and bucked some of the smaller and larger rounds.....small stuff is easy to split and no punk yet, big rounds will not be split by axe, either fire up the the big splitter or wait til colder temps arrive.

Nice. I wonder if the sweet sound of a chainsaw in your yard will bring out the wood burners in your neighborhood...
actually because we live in a smaller town population approx 400 and due to the fact there is an abundance of firewood in an around the community there are many wood burners in my small town....once of the long time residents actually owns two properties in town, once for his house and one across town that is his hobby shop/wood lot....ill post pics of his stacks and shed soon....looks like his fire wood was produced by a laser guided assembly line, every piece is uniform, almost appears to be cloned firewood

I know how you feel...we have such crooked trees here its hard to get them straight and pretty like a lot of these perfect stacks I am seeing. I have said it before, but I am just happy to get the wood in my yard with my schedule...ha Pretty or not, it still burns...
oh the never ending battle, c/s/s a cord, make a good size dent in the heap, fresh saw dust all over the ground, axe marks in the new splitting block, then unload the truck and start over. The cycle never ends, on the bright side i have less lawn to mow every day, who cares if i get a few double takes as neighbors drive by and see firewood stacked to peaks higher than the fence.
