Winter in Wisconsin is like death and taxes. It happens whether you want it to, or not. We are over the moon that the barrel of oil price keeps dropping, but continue to prepare for winter by cutting up wood, in our spare time. About 3 years ago, we made a awesome investment by buying a fireplace insert on ebay to heat our house. That insert has been a lifesaver and really takes away a lot of the pain of being dependant on gas to heat the home. We have Amish who give us a really good deal on slab wood. We just have to haul it home and cut it up. Last year we were cutting wood in the snow, so this year, Dale is determined to to be a head of the curve. Half of what you see in the above pictures is now in our garage.

Wow! That's great!!
We need to get ours under cover closer to the house. We pretty much have a steady supply with all the storms around here every year!
What a JOB! But the cozy winter days will be worth it!
Very smart! That is so funny that you posted about it. I think I was at my parents the day you guys were cutting that all up. I had Ella outside (here in Appleton our house must be in in the flight pattern for airplanes) and she asked me where the plane was about a billion times!
