We used a wedge and sledge on about three of these huge pieces, then split them up. We got our work out for a day. They look small in the photo, but they are about 3-4 feet wide and larger. And guess what we found under the stumps?

Sawdust up my nose. . .
The Hubs and I split more wood, and have a pile we still need to stack today.

Sage Honey ~ Tidbits
I started two jars of sage honey. This year was a good year for my sage, so I'm drying more for tea and cooking as well.
I filled each jar about half way with snipped, fresh sage. Then filled the jars with honey. You can use a spoon to move the sage around to release air bubbles, but I let mine sit a few minutes, and the bubbles released on their own. The honey level lowered of course, so I then added more honey.
