Hello, all!
I just picked up my 1st scrounge and got all that I could carry... literally! The alarm in the Home Depot truck rated to 3,000 lbs went off and I had to pull 2 logs out.
So I was given first refusal on the trees from a lot which had been cleared- I might have only picked up 1/6th- more likely it was an 1/8th or 1/10th of what was on the ground. I took the best looking, straightest, and as close to 16" items as I could find.
Here's what I picked up, the 3 species. Any ideas as to what they are exactly?
I also learned a few things. 3,000lbs looks like a lot less than the truck claims it is, so bring a trailer. Bring a ruler, or 16" metric. Bring more water!
