Straw or hay? Round or square bale?$25 a bale?????? Must have gold in it. We payed $3.75 a bale.
Depends on what kind of wood it is. Here, it's anywhere from $100 to $175, or it was last winter.I'm not sure what a cord of wood goes for now. We have an insert in our fireplace, hubby just cuts a tree down or if one falls he'll cut it up when we need it.

Ugh thats a lot for a square bale of hay but the price did go up this year around here.Regular three string bale. About 100-125 lbs.
Here it's $175 for fir/pine and around two hundred for oak. More in winter. Of course, George and I have forty acres of both for free!
I once knew someone who bought some Columbian hay. He's now doing 8 to 10 for possession.
The US could probly balance the budget if they legalized it and taxed it! Just saying.....LOL! I love it! He should have taken up residence here in the land of the nutzies (California)! Growing good Colombian is legal as long as it's for medicinal use!
Frankly, I think we should legalize the stuff (Mary-ja-wanna that is)! I've been around pot-heads all my life and never had a problem with them. Now alkies, smokers (the rude ones), and druggies (we're talking the perscription-type, legals), have always been a problem. Of course, legalization will never happen. You see, the government doesn't want to legalize something that one can grow in the backyard and they can't tax!
Yeah, right. NOT!If they leaglized it, no one would want it anymore.

Nope, Grandma wouldn't let us touch that stove. But she sure cooked a lot of food on it. Nothing fancy, just plain farm food, big on her own farm-raised chickens and home grown vegetables.Well... California is the 'Golden State'.
Bloomer, have you ever cooked on a wood burning stove? If not, let me give you a hint; they're very hungry. One must constantly feed them firewood. Still, it is fun once in a while. By the by, that's where the phrase "she can't even boil water," comes from. It insinuated that someone couldn't keep the proper heat up on the stove. IE: they didn't feed the stove fast enough or correctly.
You know, I honestly think that good plain food is the best stuff on earth.
Give me good down home country cooking and I'm a happy girl.

Years ago, I remember seeing a professional wrestler on TV (I wandered through a room where someone else was watching). He was supposed to be a hillbilly type, and he was showing how he trained. First he had to warm up the kitchen. I laughed my head off when he walked up to a cookstove exactly like Grandma's and threw the firewood into the oven! No real country boy would have made that mistake.
Ya know Kay, it's a good thing you're so much younger and spoken for. Otherwise, I just might be tempted to make a fool of myself. Oops, too late! Already did that several times today. I meant in referrence to... Oh, never mind.:o
This one looks like he's washing it down with Lutheran Beverage (TM). *laughs*Here's a few pics from our confirmation retreat for those who may be interested:
