Cherry Today

[thewoodlands]

Went back in and grabbed this cherry (about 40 rounds) I cut it up in about three sections then bucked those up for the wood stove, I had to winch the last part down.

Attached are some pictures while cutting then coming out the woodlands with some of the rounds.

Cherry is one of my favorite woods to burn. It dries very quickly in my experience.

Cherry is what I mostly burn here, I am looking forward to burning some other stuff too like Locust, Ash, Beech and the Oak if it is ready. Cherry always seems to ready pretty quick and gives a decent burn. It smells good too, although I cannot really smell it in the wood stove.

It's a very dry wood, right up there with ash and birch in terms of short drying time.

I'm always stopping to sniff cherry splits when I'm splitting . . . it's an addiction . . . occasionally my wife catches me in the act and I feel a bit foolish sniffing wood.

At least you are not sniffing a ROUND.

+1 Love the smell. Seems like it's hard to get cherry around here. Oak isn't to difficult to find; there are lots of cherry standing but if it's taken down its not left around for the taking.

Seems like Cherry is the tree that likes to come down on our property, I still have 7-8 that I have to buck up that are down that I've found.
