Spent last Saturday finishing up the Adirondack Lean-to roof framing in the morning, then sawing and stacking as much of the quarter-sawn white oak I could get done before the weather turned. It went from low 70's Saturday to snow Sunday and by Monday night we have around 30" on the ground. Hope this isn't a sign of how the whole winter is going to be.

I would say. :D Sure glad I don't have to deal with burning off all that saw dust. :D

I've tried burning it but it's slow going. Mother Nature is doing her best last night and today though. I think I can start to see where my mill is now!
