man i must have 500lbs of fresh cut cherry. it was 14" or better in diam and i have several logs and stumps.
a guy on craigs list had listed firewood for free. i contacted him and was first. i went to got some maple from a 65' ish soft maple. it was two truckloads of green good wood. then as i was loading it he came out and told me that the other 80% of the tree standing was coming down and i could have it all. a tree service was cutting it. its much cheaper if the wood doesnt have to be hauled off. he asked if i wanted it. i said heck ya. so i went yesterday and got another two truckloads.
today they brought it all down to the stump. i had a 22' trailer. i had a full load with 4 huge trunk pieces and two big limb chunks. took it home and went back to get the last of the 15 20" diam chunks. the tree guys said we got some cherry yellow locust and small maple ascross the road you can have it too. they said it was little stuff. ya right. 10 truclkoads. i had way to much on the trailer but i got it home real slowly. and the cherry was a big one. the three logs to the left on the huge maple trunk are cherry as well as all that pile by the pool.
heres the load. and theres 4 truckloads behind boat you cant see. they boomed the big ones right on the trailer for me and did all the cutting. cant beat that.
did these last week this was the first 2 truckloads.
