Earlier this year I took down a monterey pine and one oak behind Mom's house... she is 78 and has lived in her home close to 50 years.
I cut the rounds to fireplace size even though the Bay Area seems to have burn bans whenever you would want/need a fire.
Over the last few months, Mom split the wood and stacked it a little at a time... she enjoyed it and only did as much as she was comfortable doing at any one time... had it all stacked thinking she would be in good shape winter after next and was quite proud she was still able to do it!
Last night she called and said the entire stack is gone... sure enough, I found the chain cut and tire tracks though her backyard up to the woodpile.
The last couple of years I have seen a lot of things... this has to take the cake.
Mom misses the wood and is even more concerned that someone would come into the yard with her being home all the time...
