Springtime chore.....done for another year....Thank God!


This is a TINY section of my woodpile.
Cutting down trees ( about 30 each spring ) and blocking, splitting, drying and then stacking used to be a family job.
Now that the kids are gone....it's a one-man job.....'with a little help from my friends'....as the song goes.
Each piece represents some welcome heat this upcoming winter....when it will be much appreciated and I'm sure you're heard the old country saying....."Wood warms you twice.....once when you cut it and again when you burn it."

    Not only have you provided warmth for next winter, but probably some shelter for a few grateful critters.
