I Know I Am A Wood Burner When...

[infinitymike]

I hardly scrounge roadside wood, but I do pull loaded trucks over and have them come to my house and unload for free rather than pay to dump it

You must live in an area where not a lot of people burn wood ? A load like that around where I live ( northern mid west) you wouldn't have to pay to unload. Easy sell.

I'm a wood burner cause the weather man says the lows this weekend may get down to high 40s, low 50s so I'm gonna get the stove going and I have a stack of 2 year old poplar and birch ready to go in the garage for an early shoulder season burn ! I'm saving my oak for minus 25 degree January !

I know I am wood burner when.... My wood stacks are taller than my wife.

You know you're a stover when:

Ya check out chimneys while driving along just to see how many
others are doing it.

 

[Dobish]

when you walk around the neighborhood and see wood stacks that never seem to move, and think about knocking on doors to see if they want to get rid of the wood.

or when you walk around the neighborhood and notice wood piled in rounds, with no chimney visible and you wonder what they are doing with it.

Starting to happen here already.

Yeah, what the heck is going on here? I've got all kinds of leaves on the ground all of a sudden. Seems early.

I had a wood supplier come by looking for a customer's address. One look and he said, "Well, I guess it's not you!"

You know you are a wood burner when you have a lot of conversations about large piles in your yard and you don't own a dog...

...when guests regularly fall asleep on the couch at 8pm hypnotized by the fire.

When someone sees your woodpile for the first time and says Holy $&@t!

 

[NoGoodAtScreenNames]

When someone sees your woodpile for the first time and says "Um... wow... You sure have a lot of wood..." But you hear "Wow! You sure have a lot of wood!"

 

[CincyBurner]

. . . you pull off the side of the road to pick up a few pieces of wood - in your Sunday clothes.

 

[HisTreeNut]

You might be a wood burner if your wife leaves you a message saying you can go "malling" after work, and the office manager says to you, " I thought you hated shopping..."

That one really hit me crazy funny.

Started burning last feb so there was wasn't much of a stack 'cept staying a few weeks ahead.

My row is 5ft high x 90ft long, top is level but on a downslope. Other end of the row is almost 8 ft high
and now blocks viewing the parts tractor n' bicycles, and my scrap pile. With the wood stacked most
nicely and no more redneck appearance visitors really were shocked. I love it. Ready until roughly Christmas-2018.
Good campfires too after storing totes of kindle there was plenty left, skinnies, bark chunks, unplittable knots, etc.
It's been a great summer, and I've learned much more here at the site.

Cheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeap

you know you're a hardcore woodburner/scrounger

...when you give ticks to your dog

You know you're a wood burner when every time a new guest comes to your house a conversation about firewood inevitably is one of the first things to come up.

You know you are a real wood burner, when that "row" becomes plural, "rows".

Stihl needs to come out with a version of Frontline for wood cutters, or maybe a forest helmet with an integral flea collar.

When you not only burn for winter heat but all summer for DHW

 

[johneh]

When you drive the back roads thinking about how much
fire wood there is in the standing dead!

 

[Jags]

...When you refuse to accept that two stroke exhaust is not a draw to the opposite sex. Repeatedly.

 

[Dobish]

when you are driving around in a rental car in a heavily wooded area, jealous of all the giant stacks of wood people have, and wonder how much you can fit in the rental car... or on the plane back with you.

 

[Ashful]

Real wood burners don't even count half pickup truck loads.
