Well, if Robbie and I are any indication....a whole lot!! We have had these huge mountains of wood sitting in our front yard (classy, I know) for a long time. Most of it was wood from our property, a little of it was wood a friend gave us when she cut down some trees (thanks Michelle!) and all of it needed to be chopped and stacked. We had been whittling down the pile slowly but there was no end in sight. Our biggest problem was that there were between 15 and 20 trees that had not been cut up yet and as hard as Robbie worked, he just didn't have the time or equipment to get them all cut. Soooooo we finally hired someone (best decision ever) who was able to accomplish in less than an hour what we had not in 9 months. The problem was that once the logs were sliced, we were left with this..
A LOT of wood (the pallets are what we used to stack it on). So, the wood chucking commenced. We worked our tails off for two weekends and finally...

STACKED!!! It may be hard to tell from the picture but that is a TON of wood. Enough to get us through a couple of winters for sure! We try to heat the house with just the wood stove so we go through it pretty quick. A huge shout out to Robbie who came home from work at least 3 mornings and instead of going to bed after working all night, Rock Starred up and chopped wood for a couple hours. It is nice to have the wood ready to go since it feels like November outside and it is just great to have a small project from the yard out of the way. Oh, and one more thing. Next time you see Robbie be sure to comment on this project. He really wanted me to make sure people saw these pictures!
