Its a PITA though, my job when I was little was to fill the basement every Saturday from the wood pile with the wood needed for the following week. Which I hated, than you had to feed it.
IMHO its nice to know it can be done if you had to, and its not the end of the world.
We used to carry about a 1/2 cord in his F150 all the time with no ill affects. The truck would be loaded until it just about ran out of suspension travel.  |
Sounds familiar! My 2 boys are tasked with keeping the wood crib filled and I hear the PITA comment quite often. It builds character though
