It's been raining almost daily up that way.
I still have that bar and chain in my car. I will be in Abq today. If you're going to be around give me a call later this morning and maybe we can meet up. |

I was going to call you yesterday as I passed through your area, but time got kind of tight on me.

What are you cutting for firewood, out of curiosity? Seems that all pine and the like in that area?

It is mostly Ponderosa pine.
Sometimes I'll get lucky and find some juniper, oak, or cedar, but not very often. |

Or, I could buy hardwoods - oak goes for $240/cord and cedar (not quite a hardwood - call it a harder wood) goes for $180/cord. I'll just burn pine at $10-$20/cord and my labor and keep the chimney clean. I keep hoping to get a season or two ahead on my woodcutting, but cutting on Forest Service land keeps getting postponed due to fire danger/rain/drought/whateverotherexcusetheycanthinkoftokeepcitizensout oftheirforest |
