Hopefully you live in a neighborhood where there's at least one other neighbor who's a wood burner!
That's a nice haul! I get wood dropped off at my house by local tree companies in log form, everything from 2 ft logs to big guys over 10 ft long and of various sizes. After bucking they get rolled into the backyard and once everything is bucked I can start cutting. 95% of what I cut is done by hand and whatever the axes and mauls don't get goes into the splitter pile. My wood shed is along the back part of my back yard and makes a nice fence between me and the neighbor behind me
Two neighbors across the street also burn wood so my wood cutting is nothing out of the ordinary for the neighborhood and they own splitters too so the wood cutting lifestyle and associated noise is acceptable in my neighborhood.

I appreciate the concern. No I dont have any kids. However it is surprisingly stable. I've 8bly been able to build it by climbing up the side. I used to rock climb...and it feels like I'm bouldering as I stack it up and sure it up in random gaps. It's crazy how stable it is. We had 50 mph winds today
..trees blowing down across roads...I was up top loading up my HH feeling like I was on Noah's Rocket Ship. Beer on the deck waiting for me too.
No problem seeing what's going on in the neighbors' yards, if you wanted to, fence or no fence.
