August journal

As soon as the kids start getting ready to head back to school (next Tuesday for our kids) I start worrying that Winter is Coming! We went hard at the pile of logs on the weekend and turned them into 17 pallets of evaporator wood. The knotty pieces from the F-You pile were cut to 15" and split for stovewood.

One less thing to worry about! Now we move on to a bunch of mainline work in the oldest part of the woods plus other winter prep work.

In the midst of setting up a new bush on 3/16ths. Have about 300 taps running into a 3/4 mainline. Longest run of 3/16 will be about 800 feet and all lines average around 20 taps each. Have a 50 feet drop then plateau and then another 20 ft drop to the main. Time will tell

you are going to be impressed.
