I trust that you have a log splitter, a wood stove and at least two years to
wait for the wood to season.
The only better wood I have burned at home is cherry wood.

Subject: [OM] IMG: Death of an Oak Tree
> For more than two years, we have watched a large oak, very close to our
> house, gradually deteriorating. Several weeks ago, I had the tree checked
> with a device that records the density of the wood. I showed a hollow
> area near the center of the tree. Since the usual southwest winds that we
> get during storms would bring the tree down on our house, we had it
> removed yesterday. The photo shows that, in the lower part of the trunk,
> the heart of the tree was gone.
>
> So, a tree that we have enjoyed for forty-two years is no more.
