If you start getting overwhelmed with all that splitting, just haul a load or two up to NC and dump it off in my yard and I will try to relieve some of that mental or physical anguish. ;D ;D

splitting staves is the easy part,the hard part is finding a good tree,this farm is 800 acres,with about 90percent osage,the farmers hate it, so I do them a favor and remove all i can,I keep a big pile of logs in the front yard,every time I walk by I will split a few,sometimes when I cant sleep I will cut the lites on after splitting a few big ones I can go right to sleep, ;D

That's the things dreams are made of. At least you you got something to keep you busy for the next 20 years nothing like a good stock pile.
