have for 30 years. Northern Mi native. It is the warmest heat..but messy & a lot of work. My hubby gets a permit to cut..Lets not forget the cost of the saw,truck to haul it with,GAS to and from,loading,unloading,stacking...ok when we were younger..

Yes we have wood heat. We bring it in during the summer from our 10 acres. The beetle killed trees have to be taken down before they rot and dry out and too bad to burn. We offer all our neighbours and friends out to help themselves. We will even help them. My 84 and 89 year old parents get their own wood. They have a deal with one of the log home builders in the area. When they need the building yard cleaned up they give my 84 yr old mom a call and they go load up their truck. The log builders most of the time give them a hand loading the truck .
