Splitting wood with a view

[bogydave]

I cut up some wood in the Fall & forgot about it. Remembered while I was stacking the fresh cut stuff.
Was a good day, 10 °F & sunny, so decided to split it up & get it in the stack.
Got 1/2 of it & added 2 pallets to the wood pile. Hope I get this & what's left on the 2 pallets, Gona be close.
By now yuns know I like pictures.

Its a shame that you have to look at those old mountains every time you step outside. Must be awful. :lol:

I spent 2 months in Alaska in 87 and thought that I was on another planet. Stayed in North Pole (Fairbanks), fished a lot, hunted a lot, spent 2 days at Denali (OMG) and 2 days Halibut fishing down in Homer. Unbelievable place. You can never explain it to anybody who hasn't been, and pics just don't do it justice. You are a lucky man BogyDave!

SHHhhhhhhhhh, keep it down. The north is ugly , baron, cold , dark , and full of bugs. Now lets keep it that way, shall we

We have (like everywhere) pros & cons.
Hawaii is pretty nice this time of year too.
Almost every bug we have wants a blood donation, & we got g-zillions of em. LOL
But they are gone now!

Ha. "Ice". That's a Freudian slip!
I spent 9 years in Anchorage and 2 in Fairbanks. Miss the mountains terribly.
Thanks for the pictures.

Wow, thanks for sharing the pics! I spent a month over winter in Juneau back in 2003/2004. It's an amazing place, you're a lucky guy! I miss that view.

That it really spetacular. Thanks for sharing.
Alaska is someplace that I will see especially on Jun 21 and Dec 21 to experience the amout of daylight that is around.

Nice pic's Truly beautiful. I have only been to Anchorage briefly at the air base -but would love to spend some time in AK.

I don't think I could deal with the darkness and long winters. All that snow must be a hassle for wood processing - you'd better have a storage shed and a covered work area. I can't imagine constantly clearing snow off the tarp and digging splits out .... that would be a major pain. Mine are in my toasty garage only steps from the stove. Good to go!

You're right. More people would just increase the bugs food source. Then more bugs.

When I clicked on this thread I figured you were splitting wood with some buxomy college co-ed or something. Very disappointed.

Move to ban on the grounds of a misleading thread title.

Oh, and nice mountains by the way.

Everyone around here dreams of moving to Florida when they retire, I dream of moving further north.
