I see them now.....not far from my house is a stand of tulip poplars that survived the civil war. They are quite large and very beautiful.

Will you marry me?:)
Ha! Taken.....on the other team no less.

So, being a stay at home mom with River doesn't offer me a lot of time to do projects. But during every nap this week I was able to puke this thing up.



Should hold about 2 cords when filled to the roof. And the whole operation...



You have a very outspoken little one in the avatar ... wonder if anyone has really taken a close look;lol Good luck on the scrounge and glad to hear about the steel toes!


Yep, he may not have popped out of me but we are certainly related!!

If you listen carefully you can hear the sound of dreams being shattered.......

I took a close look!!! Cute and funny......
 
Thanks fellas! My first year....heck, my stove isn't even in yet! Made a good connection with a guy with 3 year old oak. 120 for a generous long bed load. That'll get me through my 1st year. I'll keep scrounging for 2016-17. Luckily our winters are mellow. I may go grab some more!!! Watch yer fingers.

You call that winter down there? Just teasing..

I know I know....our winters are pretty mild but cold enough you need a furnace. My friend is heating his 2k sqft place with 15' ceilings on a cord a year. And that isn't in an efficient stove. So I'm hoping to at least lower my gas bill and have less TV time And more reading time because who doesn't want to hang by the wood stove??!!!

If you are raising a family, which I am not, you might like the book that I am reading now, "People I'd Like To Punch In The Throat". Funny stuff about partnering and family and life.
 
I might have to read that one Davidmsem, as I have used that same phrase several times, and recently as well :p
