First thing I noticed being "obsessive/compulsive" about firewood myself, I thought Wow, this person has incredible neat, perfectly stacked wood piles, hahahahaha, I loved the video, great looking yard, that's me to a tee, used to be. I call it "Passionate" about firewood, in mass quantity's. I,m a "Sicko/ Wacko comes to fire wood. hahahahaha and well i,m in agriculture too, Wagon loads of grain being off loaded filling trailer loads full. I spend enormous amount of time figuring, calculating, Plotting my fields to grow, yield more than last year, its fun and rewarding. god bless Warren

I enjoy your videos. You have a beautiful homestead. I've done many of the things you do over the years here in eastern Tennessee. I'm 71 now and I just maintain our 28 acres now mainly with my old 1986 Ford tractor. Maybe in a couple years I'll get a modern tractor with a hydro tranny. Keep up the good work and enjoy.

You crack me up. Looks like you and i spend our weekends doing the same thing. Playing with our toys doing chores around the house.

New sub - your videos are awesome brother. We've got our butts parked just southwest of St. Louis Missouri. Funny about the heat - I was born in South Dakota and lived a number of years in Calgary Alberta and Winnipeg Manitoba - when the family moved here, I thought we'd moved to hell, lol, but.... you acclimate. But, if it's unusual to see 90 degrees you'll just have to grin and bare it - just like most things in life - play the hand God dealt ya.

I know this is an older video but I’m going to comment anyway. When it’s hot outside I do my mowing at night when it’s cooler. I find it relaxing and soothing to mow under the stars. The secret is good LED lights placed strategically on the mower that not only lights up in front of you but the sides as well. I also have lights aimed so I can see the sides of my mower deck when mowing around obstacles. I like you have a sizable yard at 3 1/2 acres so mowing takes a couple hours of my time. I’ve never commented on any of your videos before but I enjoy your content, hope y’all are doing great keep up the great work.

Enjoyed the video, yep have a deer prob too, dang near pets and pets turn things over. LOL. 90 degrees 5 miles from the head of the Tennessee river, yah summer time heat not to fun if your a heart pat., so at 58 one has to plan ones work a little more. But you're an inspiration, thanks for the video. Semper fi, and God bless you and your's, and God bless the USA.

Very impressive stack of wood you've got there! Came on KZread today looking for wood storage shed ideas and stumbled upon your vids instead and have been watching too many for too long.

Lol, I chuckled at the scorching 85 degrees...you get used it I guess. Georgia born and raised and it's just another day but come winter when it's 0 degrees up there, I'll be the one saying "I don't know how you do it"! Good vid man, I'll have to double check the model of Husky weed eater I have but it's been a dang good one too. I bet it's the one like yours because it's a straight shaft and I've had it for about 10 years also and never had hint of problems yet (knock on wood). I don't know how you guys pull off the fireworks show, we usually do a big 4th cookout and I had to cancel this year as it was just becoming too much work and I found myself dreading the holiday instead of enjoying it.

Here in Georgia the trick is to pace yourself, stay hydrated and thank God for every breath of breeze. If you don't have to pee you're probably not drinking enough water. It's kinda like a southerner experiencing a northern winter. There are different challenges, but one gets acclimatized in an amazingly short time if the will is there.

Was up roofing a freshly rebuilt shed yesterday @ 92°. Quit that, maybe this evening I'll get back to it is 95° now. We live on 2.3 acres about 45ish miles NE of the edge of Denver. Been here about two years. Will be starting a 35' X 70' steel frame shop this summer, for 'cottage industry'. I retired in Jan, 30 yrs at a local Sheriff's Office as an 'Electronics Geek'. I was born & raised on a farm/ranch in South Dakota. Still have a major interest in that place, I like the weather, availability of markets and the politics much better here.

I was from South Carolina and grew up in the 100F to 115F weather with no A/C when I was a kid. It kind of wears out. Now I live in Chile! It is winter here now with the highs in 40F lows 32F. Summers are 85 in the day and 50F on the same days evening. Man you stack like a Chilean! Chileans do all their stacking to the "'T''. Everything here is split by hand for the most part. i think that i am the exception with my custom wood splitter. Very nice work. We have professional wood cutters here for fire wood and they use Oxen and carts. Also you see almost NO lawn mowers here. Even the highways are cut with weed eaters. They just do it different. Stihl is pretty much king here. You see almost No husk varna here at all. I did not want to bang my head against a wall so I went with the Stihl as well and I had them in the USA before I left as well. Thanks. Jim

Yes I’m OCD about the tidiness of the wood pile. I will not let my husband pile. It drives me crazy how he does it. I have to admit I did have part of a pile fall this year. First time ever. I piled that pile when I was very upset and went nonstop until the two cord was done. I’m over 50 and got tired and sloppy . I won’t do that again. Oh my pride lol!

From Muse Florida. We have about 3 cool days a year. Heat index today is 101. I have 20 acres and a few cows. I mowed for three hours rested for an hour then worked in the shop for a couple of hours.

This is Bucky i live in South Carolina at state line of NC and i drink plenty of water and use a blue sweat band that can be dip in cold water to help stay cool.

How do Southerner's deal with the heat? Wear shorts, drink a ton of water, get a frog tog chilly pad etc. And get a different hat. One with a brim that is also vented for your noggin. Born/raised in New Orleans, living in Madison, GA on 28 acres.

In central Alabama the sun drills into you. At some age I got smart and got a hat made for it. Best I ever had was an open weave pith style(Brookstone), the air seemed to dance all over your head as you walked. Second best is my Columbia vented booney. Getting one of those cooling(?) neck gaiters. If it doesn't cool at least it'll keep the sun and string trimmer bits off my neck. Pop it over my nose when I get into dust. People drink iced tea here. Had a friend from France that had been all over the world was disgusted with it. Said all the world drinks hot tea. Africa? Yep. Well I don't get it, you can toss the ice but why hot in heat? Nothing like a cold glass of fresh tea.

Great videos sir, I'm always busy cutting, splitting, stacking wood, trimming, mowing, planting, weeding, picking up bark and sticks etc etc. It keeps you fit thats for sure! LoL. I just had a thought watching this video, if you had a ready source of pallets, why not put some forks on your tractor and neatly stack your spit wood straight on a pallet next the the splitter, pick up the completed stack pallet and all and place it along your wood pile line. That saves the extra step of of filling the bucket on the tractor and then stacking again on those wood rails. It would also be more stab,e and not fall over due to the wider footprint on the pallet. 🍻👍🏽
