Preparation for the winter has started in earnest. On waking today, I had enough wood to cut and split to keep me busy for a weekend.
12 hours later, I have twice as much.
Josh, a good tree worker and all around great guy, stopped by work today in his truck and pulling his chipper.
"...too good to chip" he said as we said hello. I stepped up on the back of his truck to see a good cord's worth of locust and oak.
How much? I said. $40 he said.
I got off work, had a good draft IPA from the Wedge Brewery (on the way home of course) then set about moving the pile. An hour later, I have it staged to cut.
Now all I have to do is service my chainsaw and get to it. I know what I'll be doing this weekend.
