Papa, used to do firewood and heat my house from the forest wood. One thing with firewood, it's real simple, if you put a base under it of sticks, or something like that, just something to keep the firewood from making contact with the dirt, that firewood will last much longer, 2 extra years maybe. If you could keep it covered even, then it will last forever, tarp can do that if you have a tarp you don't mind being junk.. But if you keep it off the ground, you probably got a few years out of it before it goes bad. Firewood touching dirt though, goes bad pretty fast, 2 years, it loses a lot of weight and is broken down pretty well.

I have some long metal pieces I'll be putting under it and I think I will even just screw scrap metal roofing into the top of it to keep it dry. Excellent advice!
