I love it when things go better than planned. Yesterday morning I went to fetch a load of oak scrap wood to chuck into the swamp as filler. As I was loading the owner of the home arrived and invited me into the back yard to peruse some better wood. I was completely blown away by the beauty of some of these logs! Most are 18 - 24" in length and some are up to about 30" in diameter. There are some wedges and smaller logs I also can use for craft projects. I was like a kid in a candy store when I noticed the weight of the wood was compressing the rear tires in my truck.
I'll have to make room in my storage building to keep the wood out of the weather but that will be time well spent. And should more good wood make its way to the curb or should I see Tony again I'll load up another truck bed full. If nothing else I can always use the lower grade stuff in the swamp.
