Edit: 3 measurements, gelled not gelled and looks like it's about to gell.

Hope you're gonna burn that "next year".   Splitting it now doesn't equate to "seasoned wood"!!

I still have over a cord of eucalyptus left from last year that I'm burning.

I think he might do it for a hobby.... notice how small of pieces!

I do it for my wife.  She likes to have a fire going in the living room fireplace during the winter months.  She says it's soothing.  I say it's a lot of work.  5a4ad972b9931_animated-smileys-love-erotic-3261.gif.7cecb1a05cd35be424e2c46e5ff56a67.gif

I know one thing, here in Oregon we got to leave bigger chunks, not like that kindling :lol3:

 

 Then again he might be splitin' for grocery store firewood.... 6 pieces for 20 bucks.:thumb1:

now I know where those bundles of fire wood at the convenience stores come from.

 

IB mobile is running a sweat factory at his place  :lol3:

you know what they say about firewood being a never ending heat source, from cutting it, to splitting and stacking and carrying  it into the house, you never have time to get cold.

This pretty much sums up the last several days in my neck of the woods. Hettinger is roughly 100 miles sw of my house. I have seen pics of peoples thermometers showing -50 to -55 last night in low lying areas of western ND. I have been sitting and tending the wood stove the last 3-4 days. Today I ventured out for a 6 mile run after it warmed up to around -10*f lol.

strange winter around here, way above normal temps for this time of year, might get into the single digits over night then climb back into the 40's during the day, not complaining one bit though, If the weather pattern dont change soon I may run out of water this summer.

Most "fireplaces" = a "net" loss in heat in a house.

 

Just saying of course!!!

I know....I know, It's not efficient, heat goes up the chimney, sucks in cold air. etc. but after 44 years, if the lady that cooks my bacon and browns my bread wants a "soothing" fire she gets a soothing fire.    5a4b133c5bd75_animated-smileys-love-erotic-3011.gif.18ebfc3c12fee6d61524ab35c06dd766.gif

Neighbor down the road does fall pictures for us. Pretty neat. 

 

We always get buzzed a few times a summer.  He’ll make one pass, everyone runs out side to wave, and makes another.

Last years winter jeep ride. 

 

Just getting out onto the lake behind the house through the woods.

What state is this,

 

Minnesota...

 

Like myself, I'm in the backcountry of Idaho. Man, I hate it when I got to drive to Ontario, OR or Boise, ID. I'm so ready to bail out and head for the mountains and get away from the crazy people of the big cities. 

 

Yes, I've got neighbors but I've got a good margin of space between us.

Yep. I'm in Northern Minnesota about 100 miles from Canadian border.

 

It's out of the way but not remote. I like it here. Town of 15000 is 12 miles away and fluctuates due to college being in and tourist season.

Awesome place and view!

 

I totally understand about wanting to bail when in the populated areas. I get real rammy and just want to get back to the woods.

Going to drop near zero tonight. All vehicles tucked back in the shops for the cold night to come.

This is also a test to be sure cellphone can upload pictures to the site without the upload error like before. Made several upgrades making the website better. Gearing it up more so for the mobile user trying to lighten the code and make it as fast as possible but keeping it feature rich.
