Mo in typical winter wood cutting regalia.
Note I am wearing safety glasses.
Brrrrr. It was cold at the b-n-l's.

A typical round at Mo's house.
This one is red oak.
I've got about 25 or 30 of these in white oak.
Splitting these in red oak ain't bad.
Splitting these in white oak is sad.

This white oak is turning out to be a bear to split.
Mo has split about 5 of the rounds so far.
Mo spends between 30 minutes to an hour per round. One took 1.5 hours! Gnarly!
Mo may need to try a wood grenade or one of those 12 pound monster mauls.
Mo slaps himself in the face a few times, like a TV wrestler, before he starts his futile flailing.
