Fortunately I was able to prep the apple butter in the house on the wood stove and avoid being froze...

    The Heavens and Earth are only around 6000 yrs old. The only thing you need to do next, is to accept the LORD JESUS CHRIST as your savior. John 3:16 Context 13And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven. 14And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up: 15That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. 16For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

    The great ash die=back is really a shame because it is really a superior wood for many uses. Since Major League Baseball has had to turn to other woods like maple for their bate the rate of breakage in games has gone way up. Among other uses, ash makes about the best firewood, so you should gather as much fallen ash as you can. According to the old Woodcutter's Song, it's worth its weight in gold. Oak logs will warm you well That are old and dry. Logs of pine will sweetly smell But the sparks will fly. Birch logs will burn too fast; Chestnut scarce at all, sir; And hawthorne logs are known to last That are cut down in the fall, sir. Chorus Surely you will find There's none compare with the hardwood logs That're cut in the winter time, sir Holly logs will burn like wax; You could burn them green. Elm logs burn like smouldering flax, With no flame to be seen Beech logs for winter time, Yew logs as well, sir; Green alder logs it is a crime For any man to sell, sir. Chorus Pear logs and apple logs, They will scent your room. Cherry logs across the dogs Smell like flowers in bloom. But ash logs, smoo-oo-ooth and grey, Buy them green or old, sir, And buy up all that come your way They're worth their weight in gold, sir. Chorus You can hear it here in Pint and Dale's Livestream at about 9:55 ua-cam.com/video/74oBYJHBgp8/v-deo.html
