We have very little use for firewood when it comes to heating our home or shop other than the romantic small fire some may have every now and then.
But we do have a group of people that cut many cords of firewood. They use it to build bonfires on the Mississippi River Levees. These bon fires are lit on Christmas Eve to light the way for Père Noel (Santa Claus)as he brings gifts to all the kids on the bayou.

A few pictures I took while driving down River Road today along the Mississippi river.
And a link to some internet pictures of the bonfires.
