I prepped a stump like that and it rented before I had the chance to do the fire portion. The stump is still there but rotting out faster than it would normally.
I may have it ground out, I don't believe the tenant would like me starting a fire in the yard

If you have allot of stumps you can buy a small stump grinder for less than you can have someone do the work for you here. Which is typical of lots of services here as it is not a cheap place to live contrary to what people think. Cheap place if you are a business pricey for the individual once you start adding up all the fees taxes and higher costs of services.
I've heard the same thing from friends in TX. Business friendly, not so much for the individual once you add up the costs. And people complain about NJ . . . . grass is not always greener. I passed on a corporate transfer to Dallas, more because of the climate, too darn hot for my tastes. But I would appreciate a concealed carry permit, something that is a hen's tooth in NJ, HA!
