…before ya do something like this too him…?
As I’ve said, I’m out at the rifle range campground this weekend. It’s chilly at night, and hotter n’ blazes during the day. The nights are just perfect for a nice campfire. I have several friends that’ll set me up with firewood from their farms and acreages. As much as I want - and more. I never really thunk nothing of it. They’re happy to get rid of the standing deadfall and I’m happy to take it. I typically carry about 3/4 of a cord of split seasoned poplar… maybe a little birch.
The campground out here sells wood to the campers in bags that hold about 2-1/2 good armfuls of split firewood.
I brought 3 wheelbarrows of firewood from home… it’s super dry so it flares up, and burns hot and fast. In the morn there’s only fine ash left. I will soak the ashes all the same but it’s largely a formality at that point. The coals are at least 95% out. I can see the club wanting to recoup costs and fund raise … but hell’s bells! At those prices? They can keep it!

I start my fire last night with a square or two of TP and a handful of crunched up dry twigs…
I took a trip a couple years ago from Texas to Louisiana. Since you're not supposed to transport firewood, to avoid spreading destructive insects or disease, I waited till I arrived to get my firewood, It was the first time I ever bought firewood from a vending machine. I forget how much I paid, but it was too much of course.
