[quote=mamagator54;2896876]Inoxkeeper I feel for you. This is how I have been spending a lot of my time lately! 
Have splitter will travel...  [/QUote
That's cheating! I like doing it the old fashioned way with a double bit axe.
I have a one swing method that works almost effortlessly. Of course I only have to cut wood once or twice a year so that does make a difference!
Nice splitter! |

Freezing rain, snow, ice covered roads all around this part of Missouri. Weather channel has Jim Cantore in St. Louis today. More of this lovely stuff still on the way. I do not drive on ice. Will have to stay home and do my business from here. . Hope that y'all take care and are safe. St. Louis, Columbia, Jeff City, and Rolla covered also. Temp here is 23 degrees. Have a good day everyone!  |

I checked the obs and it appears areas of southern MO got quite a bit of freezing rain and sleet. I know the precip has ended across the region.

Using the splitter might be cheating and even though dahubby calls me a "tough old broad"  I don't think I would have the strength to split wood any other way. And this splitter sure does make quick work of a stack of wood!
We got the splitter by trading a gun for it! |

From Sacramento I just had my 1st hail storm since I lived here about 12 years. Reminded me of the midwest how the clouds get all dark. It was neat!

The weather tends to be incredibly boring here. I really miss the midwest thunderstorms. |

I'm with YOU, MoviaCA! We moved from CA about a year and a half ago and we love the storms here in MO!
Of course, that is until something happens as a result of the storm...and then I just feel remorse. |
