Nice dry surprise

So I'm out for a run I see something piled on the side of the road I get there and it's old wood decide to go back with the truck when I'm done. Go back and it's 2/3 decent old and dirty but dry and solid ! I look closer and there are the rays on the ends Yep split it up it's all very dry oak

BTUtiful!! Any idea what type of oak.

Tough to tell. Its been down quite a while. It is reddish when I split it and the rays on the ends are quite clear. My guess is red.

I got around to sawing away on the larger limbs on some HUGE Red Oak yesterday on very back of the property that have been down for years maybe even a decade. Mind you this stuff is off the ground. Interior BONE dry with about 1" of powdery dry rot on outside. Who would've thunk it! TONS more gotta get to at some point.
