A basement full of wood

I have to say I am rather proud of our accomplishment.
See that front row there?
 
















 That is all MY wood, aka Madeleine wood, because that was all dead lying or standing wood that SP would never have concerned himself with.

I am also a huge fan of the collective wood stacking we have done with our friends.

Abby and Steven are moving into a new old house this weekend. We were there last weekend helping stack their three cords of wood into their wood shed.

It really makes us happy to help others. It is my life's mission. 

The best past was even getting over to Beth's the next day to get her firewood in the right place. Yes the right place is on the other side of the house and NOT at the opening of her driveway.
Because really, how could this picture NOT make you happy!?



A fair tally would be that the 6 of us stacked 10 cords of woods this season. That is quite the accomplishment if you ask me!

I love these people and am happy they are in my life, and proud to call them friends!

After...

3.5 cords of wood, thrown and stacked, and man do I feel it!
 
 

Firewood stacked so start a fire!

Our living room is directly above this:

It creates radiant heat in the hard wood floors upstairs. 
I love a warm floor in the winter!
The basement is very full of wood, in fact this is the most wood we have ever put up for a winter.

Above is the kids big TV and Xbox space.
 It get SO warm in there now I have to turn the stove off today before the teen boys sleep down there!

Fire wood

This is the long awaited culmination of our tree girdling project. Much thanks for all the firewood my dear SP! 

And we are off!

First log to be skid!

The pile begins and then it grows...

And then I get my turn on the tractor to skid the green wood to its final drying spot on top of the well.

The log pile grows
