Baws, it's been a good day. I had 3 nice white oaks, but they've grown to the point that they're quite close to the house and I've been concerned about tornadoes/wind. I cut them down today and those trunks are straight as an arrow.

I usually turn my gnarly white oaks into firewood, buy these are going to go to a sawmill and make beautiful lumber.

Democrats would not like your oak logs.

Enjoy your higher AC bills.

I'm not worried about electric bills. We just went through a 4 month remodel and have a new 2-stage 16 seer AC unit , all new windows and all new insulation.

Any ideas on what you’ll do with the lumber? I have a few white oaks and maple trees I’ll be removing off my property soon and would love to hear some ideas on what to make with the lumber.

How many years to payout that high efficiency?

Did you use a low-e glass?

I have no clue how long but we were getting the house remodeled, so I insisted that the windows and insulation be upgraded. We got low-e Andersen windows and some kind of darker shade of tint.

Aluminum foil would have been cheaper.
