Nice looking piles of wood. I find myself taking deep breaths trying to get a whiff of it. LOL
 
Looking Nice!
 
Thanks! I figure I have another weekend or two worth of cutting and then I'll be splitting and stacking. My brother still has a bunch of ash tree's he wants me to take also so I'll probably be busy for a while. :)
 
So... does it smell nice? Someone needs to invent scratch 'n sniff for the internet.

lol! When I walk into the drive all I smell is fresh cut wood. I guess it smells nice if you like that kind of thing! :)

I can smell it from here it smells like money!!!!!!!!
 
To a lot of us that indeed is a very nice odor. Perhaps after you cut for a while you too will be bitten by this sort of thing.

I well recall when I first started working in a sawmill (as a teenager) that I just loved the smell of the freshly cut lumber. Well, most of it was good. Cottonwood I did not like then nor now. Sassafras is still the best.
