Nice! A good haul of high-class firewood close to home, free & easy. Even better there are now a few more people in town that know you're a "wood guy".

You need only to have lived in the NE to understand how that can happen. The snow storm wiped out so many trees the towns can not keep up. It is 2 1/2 weeks since that storm and my street still has 3 areas coned off with trees intruding on the roadway. I had 9 wire breaks within 2 miles of my house after that storm. Many more trees down in the same vicinity.

Heck, it took 9 days to get my power back. why would someone think the wood is all gone?

After Hurricane Irene and The recent snowstorm in CT/NY, there are still plenty of places where there is wood on the edge of the road or partially in the road on the side roads weeks later. It takes time and money to send out town or contracted crews. Plus, it gives busy scroungers extra time to get some wood!

Same up here, I saw a guy pulled over today on an entrace ramp to Route 395 scrounging a downed maple, he probably figured it wasnt private property so it was a good place to cut
