Since it just might get cold during October, I decided to bring up a few loads of firewood and stack it on the back porch.


 
The first load was about half split slabs for starter wood.


 
The next two loads were splits and rounds.  This is 2'H X 10'L so it should be enough to last well into December.  Gotta be ready 'cause sometime the temps can drop down close to freezing.  :o  Burrrrrr !!!

That much wood would only make two good burns in my Garn. I loaded half that much tonight will put the other half in Sunday night. Were in the forty's and raining so some heat is good.

I think Magicman has a pasture full of piles of firewood and two full woodsheds he hasn't pictured. ;D :D

I got firewood.



My woodshed.  Two rows in the foreground about 12' long and two more in the background also about 12' long.  All four rows are close to 6' high.  I should burn about half of this during this Winter.



This is what I split this past Summer that is shown in the foreground of the picture above.

I have one but my maul'in days are behind me.  I would have hated to hand split some of those sticks shown in the picture, even in my maul'in days.    :o

Although I will have 8 cords, it will probably last 2 years and then some. ;D

Goose, what Magic man has stacked there is smaller than your kindling pile.
Us Northerners are coming into our tough season - the Southerners are just coming out of their heat-stroke season. 😎
The Magicman is is poking us in the ribs and enjoying the fact that he and his kin have survived yet another killer summer.

Besides he cannot cut wood down there during the summer because the skeeters are the size of small planes :D

Our forecast is for a couple of days in the lower 30's next week so I may have to burn some wood.  :o

Wood pile(s) ;D





I've added another 1-1/2 cord (two tiers) in the basement wood room since that photo, so 4-1/2 cord in there and 3-1/2 out in the wood racks.

Nice rolling wood fire. ;D



It's 80 degrees in the house now. Nice and toasty. ;)
