Stan, I can only imagine that age plays a role in reducing ones enthusiasm to process and handle firewood. Reason I say that is that when the weather and conditions are ideal, harvesting trees from deadfall, blowdown, or diseased, damaged or trees that need to come down, for my firewood needs is something I really enjoy doing. Sure its work, but its a good kind of work, and as long as I can keep things at comfortable work height, its no real bother to me so far.
I've got just enough under cover to last most of a winter, but have logs to gather all over this place and trees to fall etc.
To catch up, I'll use some of my vacation time, seeing I've accumulated and or earned 5 weeks worth and have kept it intact so far this year. I don't have the time otherwise, but I can take advantage of it because my place of work is 7.3 miles away and I can keep the stove going round the clock for just the cost of me processing wood of my land. I can only hope to be able to keep doing my own firewood until old age, whatever age that is LOL !

Jon's Allis has a small front loader and though it doesn't carry much, it serves his needs. It was the hard starting and low power that made him think it was time to replace the old girl. Jon called me to help him discover why his tractor wouldn't start
