Well I can't say it was stolen , used with out permission ,maybe? Five buddies and I fixed up an old horse barn into a cabin. Leased the timber,barn and coupe ponds from land owner . Was quite the place for hunting, fishing ,camping ,etc. Well as soon as we got the wood stove ( or should i say I) put in . Couple pof us started to cut and split wood fo rthe coming winter. Well out of 6 of us ,only two ever got any wood .Kinda like the grass hopper and the ant ! Everytime i went up to cabin there was no wood stocked inside ,the wood pile kept getting smaller . the two of us that cut the wood sai dheck with this ,,so we locked up wood in old horse stall. Next time up door busted off stall.Got to the point i was stock piling wood out in timber ,,didn't dare leave any around campfire ring ,,it'd be gone ,burnt up ,by next time made it up there. after several sessions of "he who cuts the wood , burns the wood " The other guys finally got the hint! got to the ponit one time i just took the chiminey pipe from stove with me when i'd go home. Wow ,,,place that was supposed to be a stress reliever was cause of more problems than ever thought of ! Between mowing keeping place clean ,dishes etc ..Well owner sold land ,,someone elses playground now... Got new place ,,new guys ,,hopefully none of the problems experianced in past !!!
