I was at the sawmill recently and discovered about thirty smaller cherry logs. they’ve been there about two years and when asked the owner said he planned on cutting them into firewood.
AAAAggghhh! cherry firewood!
OK they aren’t great quality or size but firewood?
I’m certain I can get them for very little more than the cost of milling them.. but! I don’t need any more wood..
anybody want some cherry?

If you want to make some cash on the deal, bring it out here to western Nebraska. Its darn near $10/bf at the local lumber scam. Heck, I could come out there to get it and still save a bundle. Why on earth would he burn money, I mean cherry, when there are gazillions of half dead elms around. I'd trade sixty small elms for those thirty small cherry's. Seriously though, if you want to sell some, I might be interested. Depending on your location, and of course, the price.

Steve,
your there and I'm here.. I don't want to buy anymore wood, I've bought over 30,000 bd.ft. for my timber frame and I've still got great big piles of it outside waiting for mwe to use it up..
I just hate to see something wasted..
Guess there just aren't any wood workers in Minnesota...

Yea, I know how you feel.
Speaking of firewood, I had 3 large Cherry trees near my shop.
They were starting to threaten my roof so I arranged for a friend to
take them down.
He was supposed to just drop them and leave them.
I was away when he came.
He decided to help me out and cut them into 18in logs for firewood.
I almost died when I came home.
So much for good wood.

Is your friend still alive?
If not, where did you bury the body?
