To give you an idea of how BIG this wood pile is lets start from the beging.  Our wood pick-up is this old 81 Ford, that some one dropped the old back axle and put in a Dodge dully axle in its place.  Then made a oversized flatbed.  It measures close to 8 ft wide by 10ft long!  It can hold close to 4 cords of wood!  Well with SuperMan going to school our wood shed has been coming together very slowly.  So every time we have came home from getting wood SuperMan just backs the truck up to the side of whats going to be the wood shed (right next to the walk way) and kind of throws and kind of stacks the wood.  Just a few days ago we had some family and friends over so SuperMan could have them as an aduiance for his Public Speaking speach.  It was so funny, the men and their HIGH testosterone levels walked by and  had to chop at least one round!  The first one being my little brother.  As he walked in the house the first thing he mentioned was the wood pile.  He and his Wife had to leave early for they were celerbrating their ann.  as he walked by on the way to leave, turned around picked up the spliting maul and choose his round and with one swing split in half.  Look up with a huge grin and ask he got into the car said "I just had to do that!"  I just had to laugh this is my little brother that went away from the country life and took up the suit and tie everyday for work.  Then as my older brother was leaving he too picked up one round and with one swing split his round in half.  With a statisfied grin put on his helemt and left.  Later on while our friends arrived she and I were talking on the pourch while SuperMan BBQ we noticed her husband pick up the splitting maul.  I smiled at her and wispered to her of the earlier events.  And with a huge cracking sound the first round flies in half.  Well her husband had encouragement, their 1 1/2 yr old son gave a out a joyful sqeal.  That was all it took, his daddy split half the pile, just because it delighted his son so much (men really loved to be admired even if its from a baby)!! 

I have always admired my SuperMan's brains and muscles. But after everyone left I told him how impressed I was with his "strategically" place wood pile!!

Thanks to all those macho men that helped my husband so much!

P.S. It looks like we will be in court in 2 weeks please keep us in your prayers!
