  1. Stop, Children what's that sound? George says a blizzard is comin' 'round
  2. They're all at my house, don't worry.
  3. Saw 3 separate lightning bolts through a double rainbow this evening. I dunno if I can ever top that.
  4. I'm sure you'll be frying up your own home grown harvest in no time.
  5. Going to be a great year for chanterelles if this keeps up.
  6. Day after you can smell the mushrooms, love that.
  7. Feel free to give me a call, my knowledge is free and I'm happy to share it.
  8. I can get it milled, dried, and turned into custom furniture for you when the time comes if you like
  9. Beautiful elm too. A friend of mine has 2 on the edge of one of his corn fields. Gotta love the perseverance. Just sad to think my kids might feel the same way about ash and beech that we do about elm and chestnut.
  10. Incredible! I have a couple saplings that grow off old root stock then die back, rinse and repeat. My folks have one that flowered this year.
  11. One struck close enough to my house that the thunder knocked a picture off a bookshelf. About shit myself and my 1 year old started bawling, other kids thought it was awesome though.
  12. Alright, I wasn't sure. I'm coming from a perspective of hardwood lumber in which they are both lumped in together along with a few other types just as 'poplar'. Always looking to learn more.
  13. Dibs on the butt log if it comes down for any reason.
  14. I learned em as tulip poplars, pretty sure it's the same thing. I've come across a few around here that really stand out compared to what's growing around them, beasts. Great as paint grade hardwood if you can get it clear and dried properly.
  15. Beauties. If they ever need a new home in board form let me know
  16. You just check for ticks, how hard is it? Teach your kids to check for ticks. You spray, you get complacent, nevermind killing all the bugs. By all means, take the easy way out but don't come crying when your kids get ticks anyway.
  17. Inlaws in willington had a bear snag their suet block right in front of their window while they were eating breakfast last weekend. I saw bear scat on the woods there last summer, I think they ate all the chanterelles that used to be abundant there.
