Finally done hand splitting this load. I’ll see if I can get another one before winter but life is about to get pretty busy with pulling the garden, preserving, big projects at work and hunting season. I likely won’t be able to move tomorrow. I’m beat. Some of the last half dozen blocks I did today were knotty as hell.

Lots of hard work.
Them's are big trees.
Damn, I'm behind, still need to go get firewood.
better get on it, doesn't burn nice unless it's sat for long enough
Nicely done sir!
Splitting logs was my main job, for a few weeks, during summer break, when I was a kid.
I really miss those days
