Certainly not at the peak of Glory. There is insulation between boxes so they can spread enough to use telescopic covers. Front Row is a double 5 frame deep sandwiched between double 10 framers.

I get trailer load of log lengths dumped in my yard but even bucking, splitting and piling it is a fair bit of work. I'm a thinking I have had almost all the fun out of that, that I can have. Natural gas main runs 50 feet from my doorstep.
