Now they say a picture is worth a thousand words, so figured I would share this one of what our Northern Old Fellers use to bring in firewood logs. Friend sent it to me this morning. Click Picture To Enlarge.
Well got my firewood for next year piled high and dry and my basement is full of dry wood for this winters burning. Wife has preserves done up for winter, freezers and pantry is full, meat in the freezer so guess you might say we are all set for them cold winter days and nights. Makes me feel good all over knowing we will be warm and have a full stomach. One thing I have always done through out my life is make sure the cupboards were never bare and we had a roof over our heads. So took a few pictures of things around our home and thought I would share. Talk again soon.
Well been a busy couple days here at our home. Firewood was delivered on Monday, so in other words you might say that my lovely wife and I have had our exercise equipment delivered right to our door. That is the nice thing about living in the country, living within our means and enjoying each day as it is brought before us and making it for all its worth, that we do. There isn’t one day that appears that my wife and I doesn’t take advantage of enjoying each moment. The firewood below is ten cords of split hardwood, total amount is 12 cords. I had around five cords in the shelter, so all total will be lots for heating the house next winter. Getting the wood this early assures of good dry wood for the next burning season. Our heat for this winter is looked after and sitting in the basement. No going out in the cold for this couple, that’s for sure. Never could understand why folks buy these outside furnaces, as in my mind who wants to get up in the middle of a snow storm at three AM in the morning and go out in that cold, just to put a log on the fire. Think about that for a minute. Ok………. that should tell you something shouldn’t it. Hmm…… oh well, takes all kinds and to each his or her own I suppose. Have a great day!!
