    Here are some pics of my wood supply. The first one is what I had left over from last year. There are 2 rows that are 8 ft. long and 6 ft. high plus a quarter of a third row. The old charcoal bags are filled with wood scraps from my shop. The bucket is my ash bucket.

    This pic is what I have cut and split this past week. The rows are the same size and I have half of another one. With what I still want to cut and split, it will give me a whole 3rd row. This is more than I had set back for last year. It is a mix of wood. I have some Black Locust, some Honey Locust, some Elm and some Black Walnut. What ever was dead around the property.

    I have a hydraulic wood splitter, so it's just a matter of moving the logs!

    Well done Capt Kirk. Our wood supply is much smaller but will do the job nicely.

    You busy beaver.
    I wish I was there to enjoy winter too. You sure did a lot of work. I Just manage one wall of wood - wall dimensions 6 meters long and about 2.5 meters high.
    WOW.
