Lol. But I couldnt live with myself if I slacked off the entire weekend, unless sick. Too many chores. I am taking advantage of this chilly start, and finishing off my wood pile. About an hour to go. I split and throw on the trailer, then later, my sweetheart wife stacks it in the woodshed. I keep everything close and up off the ground so as little bending over or walking back and forth makes everything go quickly and least amount of labor as possible. Yeah right! |

Up to 37 deg now at 8am est. But 15mph north wind across Lake Michigan is cold! I am in a Carhartt jacket on Memorial weekend! What the heck?
Last year was scorching hot and a major straight line wind storm flattened the west side of South Bend.

A little chilly this morning. We got 37deg today, but the wind finally let up. I vowed to make good use of the time off this weekend, so I am up unusually early again today. Hurrying to get the last of the split firewood stacked now. Then going back to cut one more load this morning. That should take care of our needs for the year. Glad to get it done before the heat sets in.

I'm taking advantage of the windless morning and burning a bunch of old boxes I cleaned out of the shop. Fires going and I think I'll spend the rest of the morning splitting wood. 🪵🪓

Ol' Jack Frost visited us in Henry county last night. Hopefully, for the last time this spring.

I have to thank esshup for hooking me up with some logs, letting me use his small trailer, and loading me up with a tractor with a grapple bucket. It's still not easy work, but just after cutting them up my back is sore and screaming for mercy. So a big thank you to esshup!!!

Been busy enjoying the cool weather! Looks like you need at least 2 more loads of wood to fill it up! |
