last firewood day for the 2018

Every year we spend countless hours cutting, splitting, stacking and finally burning firewood. This year we got our wood done early, in September! I don't think we've ever had a full years worth of firewood cut, split, stacked and under cover this early in the fall.

_{Getting down to the last few logs!}

Every two years we buy a load of logs. Usually its about 13 cords worth of wood.

_{I wish I would've taken a picture of how huge this pile had been.}

_{Some old wood on the bottom, the fresh cut firewood on top.}

_{The wood is stacked under our covered deck so it stays dry. Its right by the basement door where we take it in to the stove.}

_{If you look carefully you might see one of the cats on top of the wood. The stacked firewood is a popular place for the cats, squirrels and stinkbugs.}

_{Pallets to keep the wood from rolling out into the yard. Not the prettiest solution but it works great!}

It feels pretty great to be heading into fall with enough dry firewood for the winter sitting just outside the back door!
