Cutting dead Ash trees down today. First one didn't go where I wanted, and I pinched my saw...Had to use every trick I know to not hit my house!!

Prime firewood!! Ash is what they make baseball bats from!!
There's gonna be a lot of baseball bats in this neck of the woods. I got one just like it near my fire pit . It's straight as an arrow for about 20ft......thought about topping it at that height and making a totem pole..................guess I need cedar........camp wood it is ..............those damn bugs ,.I don't like those ash-holes . There are ash-holes everywhere I go ! Any pie left ?

Oh yeah, there is pie left!!

One of the Ash I just cut could have been milled into lumber too...It was nice and straight and kind of a shame to cut into firewood, but I did.

I feel ya......have done it myself....... I have so much lumber stored it's ridiculous ( maybe I'm hoarding..........not , it's just that I have quite an obsession with wood.....tons of milled planks and logs.....oak , cherry , hickory , a shit-ton of cedar and black walnut......." My cup runneth f'ing over " . I really wasn't in need but a fella was replacing a huge cedar dock that I picked up....shitloads of beautiful planks.....I can't help myself , I'm a cedar addict. There's something about wood that infatuates my crispy brain. I wonder what specie is on the hit-list next......blah,blah.....stoned again. Get yer snow shovel ready.....
about wood that

I’ve been so damn busy lately. I let a friend talk me into partnering up to do a renovation project and that sum bitch ain’t done shit but collect the check. That’s the last time I’ll be working with his ass . It’s not the end of the world I’ll still make a few g’s .

F'ing beautiful wood......great work. That wood always enhances one's surroundings......warm, cozy, natural and it oozes an awesome intangible energy. I see you've buffed it up nice........I use " Murphy's Oil Soap to clean and protect, it's good shit. Always wish I had a small sawmill.

Life don't bite the bone all the time......sweet way to spend the day ( hope ya caught a buzz before,during,and after the game ) . I'm one of those Red Sox fans. Finally got to Fenway Park last summer...what an experience. It's a beautiful, unique ballpark with lots of fucking rowdy fans (yikes....never have seen a more rowdy crew in my life ). It's "electric".....high energy! I'm in Upstate...f'ing hate the Yankees......they stole the " Babe " ( f'ing big money ) .
