A Good Fall Day

Steve and I went out and cut a load of wood yesterday-It took us old guys about 4 hours to cut and stack 1 1/4 cords. He can heat his house and shop for about three weeks on a cord of wood. 
We cut maple and it sure is heavy-We cut it into 20" logs and didn't split it. Some logs took both of us to get it into the truck. I was really tapped out after we got done. We started a little fire and roasted wieners and had a good little lunch-Food really tastes good cooked over an open fire in the woods! 
It was a great fall day!
