Nice drive in this morning. Plows where out last night. But the roads where still covered, and I have a 14 month old in the back, with my summer tires on...

We had our first frost of the fall here last night in the sunny south.

My ride in. About 10 minutes north of Barrie on hwy 93.

 

Hit the Barrie sign on 93, and literally, the roads where dry.

[BillM]

I was going to say, nothing in Barrie except for a light dusting.. OP's pics look like frost not snow, lol!

Hey Caster...that's an interesting way to stack wood. how do you start the pile? if you don't mind can you take pictures when you start the next pile?

Those pictures make my stomach hurt. IT IS TO EARLY for white stuff. Thankfully on the map there is enough distance I will be saved the agony of ice and snow for a little while longer.lol

I was up on the Saugeen (Southapton Ontario) last week. Arrived at first light to find about an inch of snow on the ground. Burned off in a couple of hours. I'm sure there will be lots more to come in the not too distant future.

O.K. I did it and you are correct. Some days a little knowledge is a scary thing bud.

Raf posted a good how-to link.

 

I started stacking a drying my wood this August (standing dead and fresh) and I'm happy and releaved how dry it is. Burns great; in holz hausen I trust.

I can thank a beaver for dropping several BIG white birch near one of the ponds. That stuff was essentially pre-seasoned in the field for me.

I have a good mix of maple, oak, poplar, ash, yellow and white birch. I'm already collecting for next year.
