Firewood:

Prime firewood

 When we started to gather firewood 25 years ago on our property we decided due to our age we would collect firewood from the perimeter of our property and save the wood closer to the house for when we became older and less able to cut and haul firewood distances. This was a tree closer to the house and is prime dry firewood. 

Due to the high winds -including today - we have had many live aspen trees blow over. They are in area's where we have already harvested firewood so it will take a few years for these trees to dry out enough to be suitable for good firewood. Fortunately we still have trees that are standing dead and nice and dry. Unfortunately the association put a turn around for their heavy equipment at the end of our property and it is so rutted and rough we can't get to those trees. I will be asking the association to fix the area so we can access our property. Then we can harvest those trees for more suitable firewood.
