Sorry!

I’ve been outside working. Got my farm truck running. Took a YUGE load of branches and brush to my big pile, which I will burn as soon as it’s not raining or too windy.

Weather today is cloudy, 61 degrees, and very windy. Rain tomorrow and Tuesday.

Anyone got any Pecan trees? Those things sure do throw limbs! I think I could have built three more full trees with the amount of down branches and sticks over the past many years from just two trees.

It's best to burn brush when it IS raining.

AB , you get no sympathy from me on pecan branches...meaning you ate in the warm south with mature pecan trees...with pecans! My favorite nut. I’ll fight squirrels for them.my favorit pie, too.

Rain tomorrow

The trick is to touch it off just as it starts raining. The pile will burn fine without flying sparks setting the surrounding (wet) woods or grass on fire.

Probably wear a rain coat.
