Thursday

It was 29 F this morning and it felt really nice, almost warm. I took the dog out and scouted where I am going to cut wood next. Dusty was watching, hopefully not planning his next escape.
I gave the saw a good cleaning and sharpening today and then had to go get more oil and while out I got a bag of chicken feed. I plan on cutting some cherry and like that wood as it smells so good when cutting, splitting and even burning. Like an old man's pipe from years ago. Most of what I cut is Tree of Heaven and has a foul smell at times especially the leaves. Oak has a pleasant smell but I don't have much of that here that is down or needs cutting. There is also a maple but it doesn't seem to have much odor though you would expect it since it has a lot of sugar in it.
