When It Rains,It Pours/Oak Firewood

5-1/2″ in the last few days. There are those of us who are overjoyed. The woods are alive, creeks are bubbling, mycelium are searching for healthy oak roots. BIG storm forecast for mid-week. Low pressure seems to be predominating, allowing the storms to come in off the ocean. There will be flooding, trees down —  speaking of which I got about a year’s worth of nice oak firewood by the side of the road this weekend.
