A couple weeks ago, I got out behind my two SILs houses (next door) before the brush came in heavy, and swept house on a bunch of the smaller dead/down stuff. It turned out to be pretty productive even though it was a bit of messing around, threading a quad trail and bucking small wood. About two cords total, I think. Racks hold 2/3 cord. Unfortunately, the Fiskars was missing after this foray. I looked for it, but it might only be see by furry woodland creatures from now on... 
This stuff is dry enough already! Back row here had some wood left from last year so only a quad trailer load added there. Front row all from this grab, mainly Dogwood and Mulberry.
Dry, ready to be split and stacked in shed.
Here's some White Ash and Dogwood that will be split and dried for 2015.
One of my other SILs is also putting up a shed this year. There's about a cord of Silver Maple in the background, split and stacked a couple months ago, now tossed aside in a heap to be re-stacked in the shed later.
More from the grab that's ready to be split and put in her shed. Cherry, Mulberry, Dogwood...and a little Redbud. [ Darker wood from previous scrounge, far left.] Biggest Cherries are 14", sapwood all gone.
The cool-looking Redbud, which you can see in the previous stack pic on the bottom, right of the Cherry.
Some stuff that was cleared for the shed, tossed aside. I said "Hey, that's firewood!"
WIll sit and dry a couple years...
