Firewood thread.

[Don Corleone]

I was burning whatever I could get my hands on, mostly yellow pine. Wonder if that had anything to do with why I keep having chimney fires.....

All kidding aside, around here, the best hardwoods to burn are hickory and white oak when I can get them. Red Oak and maple when I can't. I try to avoid red-oak, because you have to split it when it's frozen solid (unless you really like a lot of extra work).

I know what a 'cord' is, but I have no idea what a face-cord or a bush-cord is. I've always heard of a cord to be defined as stacked wood that measured 4' x 4' x 8'.
