Oak firewood in Havasu?

[Jed-O]

Buddy lived in Thousand Oaks. He planted a an oak in his front yard. 20 years later it was BIG and the roots were playing havoc on his plumbing. Went to have it cut down and code enforcement came out, “you can’t cut that down” he’s like “why not? My tree, my land, I planted the damn thing”. Code enforcement, “doesn’t matter. Huge fine if you cut it down” (like 10k or some crazy shit).

I believe that was the final straw of why he sold and bought a 20 acre farm in Texas. While surveying land, there was two large trees. He turns to the local realestate guys (two good ol. Boys) asks “hey, who do I have to talk to about cutting the trees down?” The realestate guys are puzzled. “Uh, I guess you could find someone in town to do it” he says, “no, I mean, who at the city do I get the permit from?” They still look puzzled, “partner, there’s no permit. You land, your trees, you do as you wish” one of the guys put a hand on his shoulder, “this isn’t California”.

CLAAAAASSIC.

Absolutely true story.

Can’t cut a tree down on your own property?! I’d lose my fuckin mind!!!

Lake Arrowhead proper is the same way. I just advise the owner to drive some copper rods in the trunk and wait a year. Call an arborist and get a letter saying it's unsafe and will fall. Done deal.

Yes! In North Idaho... want to add an extra 2000 miles to your already long trip???
We burn about 4 cords per winter. Oak would be a nice addition to the mix.

I haven’t read this thread till now.. A truck bed is usually around 300-400 bucks for whatever they claim is the “good” wood.. the main wood guy brings it down from NorCal.

More recently I have purchased bundles from a guy that is clearing his property out in seligman area? It’s jumper and he sells it for around 15 bucks a bundle but they are pretty big and heavy. That is juniper wood.

I would take some wood Rob but I don’t think I need a full chord? Whatever a couple hundred bucks gets me to burn in that solo stove you’re bringing me.
