In need of firewood and with my condition i opted to Buy some wood. A friend called and said there was a sign "$60 truck load seasoned wood" So I called and they said "as much as you can pile on" Last night my son & I went to pick it up. Filled my F150 to the max. (my son is very frugle and stacked every cubic inch full) and brought it home, (he neatly stacked in my racks and loaded the rack at the patio door. Not all split, some rounds 8"-10" and this morning In day light, I see Walnut, Sassafrass, Locust, Ash, Hickory, and some not yet identified. Cut last summer and stored in a barn for over a year.
Good news #1 I have a great son who helps me a lot and is handy as can be.
Good news #2 LOML has ample supply for the winter, as she does love that fire.
Problem #1 I see some nice turning woods there.
Problem #2 If I rescue the wood for projects, LOML will complain constantly.
Problem #3 Present medical status won't allow to do much turning.
Solution #1 I have already stashed some previous firewood pieces for project ideas. I can select the better pieces in the wood pile and exchange the older stashed woods, that way improving my project stash and still filling the woodbox.
Solution #2 Have appointment with neuroligist on Tuesdaay for results from last round of tests and I'm sure he has found the answers to my problems and can cure me... I Hope.
