    Bundle sales are doing great. I wanted have mine out this weekend my bagger not here yet. I am finding that I don’t cut my wood at 16 inches 😂. It never really mattered till this year. My dad passed last year. His 8 and my 4 to 5 keep me busy. Hope my stand don’t do that well I be buying wood keep it filled. The camp ground was a great score. Congratulations 🎉 have great weekend. Keep up the good work.

    • @AllenFamilyFirewood
      @AllenFamilyFirewood  2 месяца назад +1

      A 5 gallon bucket with the bottom cut out works well as a bagger also at least till ya bagger gets there . I had never used a measuring stick till I started doing bagged wood . The wood just looks better in the bag if it’s all the same length . That campground has been great for us we’re headed there again today for a couple hardwood deliveries. Hope ya get that stand up and going soon .

    Good morning Vietnam!! A lot of travel time- at least it was in a clean truck thanks to Karen’s impeccable cleanliness! Lucky guy Phil ! Doesn’t surprise me no theft at the campground, lots of happy campers there- sorry, couldn’t resist. A buddy paid me back some money he owed me, all 50’s, said bank had no 100’s, from what I could glean, Feds printed Billions of them, kinda replacing 20’s- takes a fifty now to buy what a twenty used too! Let’s get these clowns out of office!! Bet Phil “donated” the blocking lumber, just one of those deals “ you scratch my back, I’ll scratch yours”. Have a nice weekend 😁

    • @AllenFamilyFirewood
      @AllenFamilyFirewood  2 месяца назад +1

      You are correct on all counts Mike! Especially the "it takes a $50 dollar bill to buy what a $20 used to"! It's all going to hell in a handbag. I can't say the truck is "clean" but at least the trash and cans are not accumulating, which they would be if Phil was in charge! I have to ride in that truck so often I have to at least empty the cans. I don't have time to clean the sawdust dust, etc. from all crevices of the thing. I don't even have time to clean my own vehicle, or the house, or the pool...don't get me going! lol Have a great weekend!

      Those were Phil's exact words the other day! lol It's much easier delivering the bundles with just the truck and not having to maneuver that trailer around everywhere. Some of the spots are tricky to get to with the trailer attached. Wouldn't be surprised to see sideboards soon!

    Hello Phil and Karen. Do you guys always sell a lot of fire wood heading into the summer months. I would have thought the fall would have been the start of the busy season. It appears the sales are doing well. Hope you have a good year of selling and splitting to maintain the pace. Thanks for another good video.

    • @AllenFamilyFirewood
      @AllenFamilyFirewood  2 месяца назад +1

      Thanks Dono! We typically don't sell firewood this time of year, but this customer likes it really dry and likes to be ahead of the game having it all stacked and ready to go come Fall. The stands are doing well, we're expecting it to get better once school is out and people are traveling more for the Summer. Take care and have a great weekend!

    That would be cool watching you saw out some Lumber and again where I work with tree guy’s also and the mill I have I don’t run anymore because it’s old like me haha but showing some of their equipment would be cool too but being in trucking It does get old after a long day, but something that would be interesting. Would be like what I do when I clean out my vehicles it usually gets to the point that when you open the door stuff falls out(hate to litter) So you just about need a shovel ha ha enjoyed the video as usual. One more quick question every time I see Phil he’s got something hidden in his cup holder, Mountain Dew right lol have a great weekend Lee Hillsgrove trucking signing off 👍
