I'm in big trouble,  I got zip ready for this year. I'll get enough cut to get going with wood for shoulder season then switch to 75% coal while I get some cutting done. Luckily I have 20 acres of storm damage thats been blown over for the past 3 years.

Not quite ready, but getting close. I have about 10 chords split 50/50 oak and pine and getting another 10 chords log length delivered in a couple weeks. I dug up my old lines and replaced with logstar two weeks ago. The fittings arrive tomorrow so I'll have the plumbing and electrical done by next week. Now I just need to get bucking and splitting!

I am looking forward to my second season.  I feel like I will start getting to visit my old friend again soon.  I have four nice chain saws now.   I am still learning, and still do not know what I do not know.  But, we survived our first winter on the farm and look forward to the second one.  Busy, setting up a birthing area in my shed now for my goats.

All I have left to do is get the wood closer to the OWB.  Roger
