We got about a dozen squirrels round here. The dog likes to chase
them. One decided to move into the barn this year. Stays back in a
corner, hasn't hurt anything yet.

Here in Michigan, if a commercial orchard is sold off as residential
real estate, the apple tress must all be taken down because the new
home owners may not treat them with pesticide, thus unleashing an
unwanted insect population. One of our boys bought a farmhouse that
was originally a commercial orchard and they raised the
orchard...hence...a lot of apple wood...we have a lot of oak around
here but the big ones were all lumbered off 75-100 years ago...they
are still trying to catch up with the maple and walnut population.
I've been nursing along two oak trees since we moved here 23 years
ago...one is finally big enough to produce acorns and we had our
first squirrels move in this year. (I like squirrels, so that's an
ok thing). "Scott Vernon" wrote in message

Apple? You cut down an apple tree? It's 95% oak here, with a few
Maples. Burn the Oak.

Sure it does, you should check out the nice fire I have going in
the fireplace!


Is it a real fireplace with real firewood making a real fire? Or
one of those phony propane yuppie pretender fireplaces?
