So yesterday I get a text from my son asking me where I want "the poles" stacked. This is a complete surprise to me as I don't know anything about poles.
Turns out the FIL saw the local railway maintenance crews pulling telegraph poles out from the 2 mile stretch of rail South of our home yard and drives out and asks a few questions.
We now are the proud owners of more poles than we have time to deal with. Most are untreated so could be used for firewood if we chose but the makings of a huge wood shed, a workshop frame or any number of projects are now sitting and waiting for us to make use of these poles.
As soon as I am actually home during daylight hours I will take photos of these treasures that were dropped off right on our yard. We also were handed a bunch of the cross members from the poles as well. Open to any and all suggestions for the best use for this material.
