No! If he wants the wood he can 'do' the tree for the wood.

We had a light dusting of snow last night. Now it's warming up again.

I agree with bby. Spend the money on a chainsaw, or better yet, an ax. Then you can get some exercise other than walking by the Dan. Make sure that Bear stays out of the way.

I had a Birch tree in the back corner of the lot. It got sick and ate up by Saprobes. After it had been sufficiently consumed, I just pushed it over.

chainsaw might come in handy for threatening the cook to cook.

Don't do it...many years ago I was charged £250 to rid me of a tree in the rear garden. I wanted the stump left standing about 4' from the ground to act as a base for a feeding table for the birds.

The guy and his helper came and chainsawed the tree branches off. putting them into his wagon bit by bit and leaving the main section of the trunk lying on the lawn saying he'd be back at the weekend to collect it, he wanted it to make garden furniture out of.

Muggins (me) paid him and the twunt never returned!!!

That'd not likely happen around here. They're getting $250 bucks a cord for firewood.

Most of the ones around here even sell punky wood for their $300.oo/cord. The guy I have gives it to me for $270.oo/cord mainly because I am never in a rush for it and he can deliver me a pickup load (1/3 of a cord) on his way to town. He knows that if I should run short I have no problem going to his place to grab a third myself. I have never found any punk in his wood. All Maple, Oak, Beech and Yellow Birch.

The heat is on...
... Makes me glad I use coal. For the price of two cords of wood I can get two + tons of Anthracite. I get my exercise each morning by moving some from the bunker to the stoker.
I may die from Black Lung but, I'll be warm while doing it.

You also live where the coal is cheap. That helps.
