Be careful burning a lot of pine. It burns fast, hot, and leads to exessive creosote buildup. A chimmney fire really sucks.

Yeap, I stay away from the pine it burns very fast.

We use it for back yard bonfires in the last fall.

Neat thing about pine trees is you can cut the tops off, tie a rope to both ends of the pine top and run it up and down inside the chimney as an instant chimney sweep. Used to do that at home on the farm. Then we would burn it in the fire.
