FWIW, we run our woodburner 24/7 from late November to mid-March. I average probably 75 pounds per day of wood - that's one big load and one easy load for me, coming inside and going down the stairs to the basement. That adds up to a lot of wood over the Winer, but it is less than the amount I need to cut each year to clean up the fencerows on our farm and our 12 acres of woods each year. I'd be cutting all that wood anyway, albeit not to length, even if I didn't burn it. And Bski has more woods than I do (although Mr. Birder may not be inclined to clean up as much fallen timber; different (axe) strokes for different folks.

I bet Bski ends up keeping a small part of the woodpile (the cleanest, most bugfree stuff) in the garage to stay dry & convenient. I have 3-5 days worth in my garage all the time, rotating with the wood I cut all Winter long.
