Red oak is about $300 a cord. Eucalyptus is about $150.

Eucalyptus would smell nice. Does it burn hot?

We don't have central heating or an insulated house and we go through about a cord and a half a year. Considering the price of electricity, burning wood is much cheaper.

It burns hot and fast. It also cokes up the chimney. Oak is my favorite. Occasionally I get some almond or walnut that burns really hot and should be mixed with oak.
