I-91 South between Wallingford and North Haven. Major DOT tree trimming this past week. I saw tons of fellow wood burners hauling it away with pickups and trailers. There must have been at least 4 or 5 rigs grabbing wood. Wish I was not working and could stop...
 
A guy at work was prosecuted by a private land owner for taking firewood from the roadside. He thought the county cut the tree. The land owner cut the whole tree up and was returning to get another load and found this guy working on his third load. The land owner refused to work it out when the cop arrived. The guy from work was found guilty of criminal trespassing and had to pay some fines.

Ooogly boogly. Interesting, but that was a bit harsh of them.
