I have a stack of blocks to split up now. Then I will go into the woods and cut some more. My ankle is almost healed well enough to work on it so, I got things ready by opening up the lean-to where I stack it. I keep a rubber flap covering the east side due to the winter "Nor'eastern" winds that pack snow in there otherwise. I have 2 rows started already and want at least 4 but 5 would be ideal. 6 feet high and 12 feet long. I am using my propane boiler now and saving the wood for the really cold days. That woodstove will run me out of the house if I burn too early! I hope to split it tomorrow. I have a nice home-built wood splitter. I keep the splitter in the garage until I need it to keep the mice out of it. They chew the ground wire and it shorts out so it won't start!
Things are moving along well, thsks. I'll be getting some medical appintments out of the way before my sister and I go to Seattle for our aunt's memorial service. We return on a "Red Eye". I'm sleepy already!!

1940 Ford 9N Tractor that I restored. Wish I still had it....wife got it in the divorce! It was her grandpa's tractor and it didn't matter that I bought it from her dad and brought it back to life...
I hate to think how it looks now....she was hard on everything! She only took it because she knew what it meant to me. I think she sold it to her cousin. It is back in Michigan now. My 2009 Kubota B2320 does a lot more work and has since I got it new in 2009. I have a dozer blade and a 52 inch snowblower for it. That thing can really throw snow!
This is how it looked when I got it. It didn't even run. I hauled it all the way from Detroit to here in NY state. Tires were half sunk into her dad's yard
It didn't take me long to get it running. I played with it for a while before tearing it completely apart to rebuild it.
sounds like you are better off from the trouble.i had a nice 68 gmc pick up i mechanically restored during the 90s,it got sold off due to similar issues. I miss it but could replicate it if i "really" wanted to.upward and forward,past is past..
