I’d like to be but I’m considering my reserve to be a 1-year supply.

Although I have many logs ready to be cut into roundies and split. All close by. I have a staging area outside our driveway.

Lightning or wind is always toppling or killing something around here. I just take my backhoe and go snatch it and drag it home like a redneck caveman


We used to have a neighbor that would go out after milking the cows and dig around in the snow for a load of wood. Some night it was -10 and he would be scratching around. You talk about a cave man lol
