Well since at least one member wanted to see my ugly stacks of wood . . .
Yeah, they're not pretty . . . tipping this way and that way, bulging here and there . . . but that's OK . . . to me that means they're drying up nicely since they originally were stacked more or less pretty neatly -- really I didn't stack the wood like this originally . . . and yeah, there's wood in there with crotches, bends and stuff that looks like it was chewed up by the splitter and spit out . . . it ain't pretty . . . but it heats the house.
From here the wood will go to my woodshed this Fall . . . seasoned outside for a year . . . and then most likely it will get another 4-12 months of seasoning depending on how the wood left over in the woodshed lasts.
