Gathering Firewood ...

From the Slash Pile

Helping to stack the logs ...

so that Mike could go along and cut them up off the ground ...

some of the heavier ones I needed help with  ...

Mike stacked the larger logs together ...

then proceeded to buck them up ...

my job was to load them into the truck and utility trailer ...

We also cut some firewood for mom ...

Kurt and mom came out to the property ..

to help with the splitting ...

mom worked the controls ... 

I placed and held the logs on the splitter ...

and Kurt tossed them into the trailer ...

Mike took the trailer up to moms ...

and helped unload it into the woodshed ...

We cut one load in the morning ...

loaded, unloaded and stacked it in the new woodshed ...

then had time to get another load ...

 in the afternoon ... 

we figure we cut 2 cords today ...

as well as getting moms firewood ...

It was a beautiful day to be outside ...

we accomplished quite a bit today ...

looking forward to sitting down ...

and relax ...

as tomorrow we will head back out to get some more ...

approximately 8 cords still needed ...

Oh My ... !!!!
