That was a tiny load... just enough to get me through the winter, with a little to spare. This load, as I'm sure you noticed, was a full logging bunk. Should last me at least 5 years... If not longer.
The first load was a last minute deal. I wasnt expecting to need firewood in the new house, but upon investigation I discovered that the ceiling cable heat was a potential fire hazard. So I got what I could get... being as it was late in the year, that turned out to be a 4 cord load of shorter logs delivered with a pickup and goose neck trailer. The guy actually unloaded it by hand, and pretty much where it landed is where it went. So I had to move it about 10 to 20 feet after I got home in order to clear the neighbors drive. Not to mention the price was roughly 2.5 times as much (per cord) as what I paid for the load I got today.
The guy today put it right exactly where I wanted it... Its amazing what having the right equipment for the job does for the customer experience. After he left I very slightly adjusted 3 logs, that were not quite as stable as I like, to ensure they didnt come crashing down off the stack if something were to bump them.
What if it Snows?

We fell asleep fairly early, now it's 0330 and I can't sleep.
Debating whether or not to make a pot of Starbucks.
The OM is still asleep, and I think it's better to let sleeping cats lie.LoSt_AgAiN, Wasted Thyme, Dale thompson and 6 others Thank this. -
Well since this load has multi stops and the first two are in El Paso, I doubt we'll leave before Sunday. And my plan is now officially destroyed.
70,000 loads available and I pick this mutt. Detention is epic, don't think it will be the record, but what a hassle.
And everyone is a victim, agent and shipper. They aren't full of crap, they're victims.77fib77, LoSt_AgAiN, Speed_Drums and 7 others Thank this. -
