Storm took down a Pecan tree

[auntdeb]

So a storm blew through and one of my pecan trees toppled over.  Any advice on storing, drying, chopping, chipping it for smoking would surely be appreciated.

Chop, dry and then I store in Plastic Bins to keep the bugs off it. Pecan trees are always dropping branches in storms.
