That and the bugs. Plenty of mosquitos and "see me nots" here (had to figure out what THOSE suckers were when I moved here...damn things are, well, hard to see! HAAA!). Of course, the tree has to fall in a thicket of poison ivy too. That goes without saying... [Show/Hide Quoted Message](Quoting Message by Becks from Sunday, June 28, 2009 7:21:40 PM)

Blegh, humidity is the killer (so to speak lol) I reckon. Dry heat is easy enough to deal with, not sticky yucky heat.

Ha...well, a "cord" (can't cut it into a chord! LOL!) is a unit of measure. I suppose to answer the question...yes. I'll have multiple cords. However, for a bonfire as I have some 8 more in storage for the fireplaces. Most of the trees on my property are blasted "gumball" trees..."sweetgum," iow. Burns with a ton of smoke and throws off very little heat. Here I have to burn every couple of weeks out of need. I'd be swamped with wood otherwise.
Yeah, Becks, it is freakin' HOT!!! 7pm and still nasty hot and humid.

Funny that falling trees should be the topic of the minute. I am just coming in from chainsawing up a massive tree that just fell over! No storm or anything. Just a monster whose number came up. Almost took me with it as my damn chainsaw konked out at the end and I had the stupidity to try to finish it up by hand. Nope, not in this 100 degree weather.
As you have all noted, too many people dropping dead lately...
