Why Not?
Getting ready for winter boys, it's coming.

I try to stay three years ahead of the game. The wood I cut this year will be burned after being seasoned for two years in the woodshed. The shed is currently filled with ash, oak, cherry, and a little birch. This fall, when the leaves drop, I'll be cutting down a big choke cherry tree to buck up and put in the shed. I also have a dead apple tree that needs to be dropped.
This is when you appreciate a full woodshed.

I'm ready for winter, 65-70 degrees and sunny. I will have to dig out a sweatshirt, I think I even wore long pants 2-3 times last winter! After 63 Maine winters I'm liking it.

I tell people "Enough snow for color and atmosphere, and so the kiddies can have fun, not so much that it creates a mess."
It was fun, going out and dropping trees and bringing it back home to split into sections, for the wood stove,
to heat the house and enjoy the light smell of wood, in the house.
I am through with cutting and splitting wood now, in my "Silver years" but I still have the old McCulloch 200,
in the garage, in working shape with a 2nd chain, just in case, I might need it, some day.
Nothing like the "ROAR" of a Big Mc, over the little things they call a chain saw, now a days.
I sure miss those days.

Our family goal this winter is not turn on the furnace until after Thanksgiving. The sweatshirts and warm socks may come out early, but the furnace is not getting set to ON.
