I have three cord of wood I am moving and stacking about 50 yards away from where I originally put it.

I also have a real nice Lopi Liberty wood stove I bought used recently at a very reasonable price.

Going to finish stacking the wood. In order to burn the wood I’d have to handle it six more times before it gets to the stove.

Going to burn the Lopi on a test burn, then I’m going to restore the Lopi stove.

After that the wood and the Lopi will be immediately sold. Unless something drastically changes, and it’s highly unlikely...

I will be buying coal from here on out. I have two ton of nut Blashak. 🤟

yep, I didn't think you'd be going back

a permanent address on "coal easy street" is just too nice a neighborhood to give up

You better believe it, KC. You should hear Levi bellyaching about handling the wood so many times. LOL! Didn’t take him long to realize it either...about 3 lawn mower wagon loads. Ha ha...

Funny thing is...convinced my parents as well. My dad just knew that anthracite nut was going to smell like Sulphur. His words: “Boy was I wrong!”

I'm with you! I need to finish splitting the wood I have left, then its all for sale. Well all except 2 to 3 cords, I still plan to burn a little in shoulder season. 3 cords should last me quite a few years.

I have half a cord left. I burned most of it up when i ran out of coal last year towards the end of the season and was too lazy to pick up more. I wouldn't mind having 3 or 4 cords on hand but my source of free wood has dried up.
