This is what Jim & I have been doing for the past month and we have until the end of October to get what we may need for the winter. In the last 9 years that we have lived in Heber (side note) I can’t believe we have been up here that long.
We try to heat the house with our wood burning stove, the first year we was here my heat bill was over $300.00 and so that’s when we started to use. We burin 24-7 all winter. And that keeps my bill down to $100.00 so it’s well worth it.
So this year my friend at work told me how her family go’s and gets their wood and It reminded me of when I would go with my dad to cut trees and get wood for the winter so I talked Jim into doing this and can I just say it’s VERY hard work, we go when we can have a day off together or when we get off at 2:00 when we get done it about kicks our butt’s. I guess we need to know we’re not as young as we think….lol.
The thing about burning the wood is the heat I LOVE it. It can never be to hot in the house I about kill my son-in-laws off when they come up……but that’s ok…..
