Neighbor wanted a couple locusts gone from his front yard. Estimate was $500 for both. $200, case of cheap beer, and some firewood makes em disappear. I’ll post these hinges, not many more normally though Lol.

200 bucks, beer, and some of the best firewood on earth.......some of the finer things of life. Score of the week.....and it's only Tuesday.

You won already without the free firewood.

I can go to the woods and cut anytime I want. I don’t clean up yards for free.

Are you sure that is locust? The wood is more red than the locust around here. Our locust is more yellow.

Oh yeah, honey locust. Has the “bean” pods and all.

Honey locust. Well, perhaps our locust is black locust. Ours is quite different in appearance from yours.
Looks like good firewood though.

We have both here. This didn’t have any thorns either. The one in my front yard doesn’t have thorns either.

Must be honey locust. We have mostly black locust here and it looks more like an elm/oak cross.

Honey Locust are great trees with beautiful wood. At least most ornamental varieties have toned down the thorns from the wild version.
The Black Locust that I have here are angry, complete with 1-1/2” thorns.
