Alder

The kids and a couple of nephews help me rescue a fat log of alder that the local farmer felled. He wouldn't tell me why he'd done it, but was ok with me taking a part of it.

It cracked radially once we got through it, so it must have started to dry already. I'll put it on supports under the house for a few years.

Just need to get it back to the house, it's still where it stood.
