It fills half the porch, but it's not a terribly large porch.
And I've taken quite a bite out of it in only a week.
Still, it makes me happy to be able to toast myself gently in the evenings.
I'm sitting just out of frame beside that wood right now.

new wood
Finally I found wood for sale. First time I've ever had anyone deliver it, and even stranger, sight unseen, which was nerve-wracking, but my schedule made it unavoidable. It's not bad wood, but it could use a few months more seasoning, which I don't have time for, since I'm saving the rest of last year's wood for a power outage, when I'll need the best hottest burning longest lasting wood I've got.

Oh there's nothing like a nice wood fire.
ReplyDeleteNothing. :) I intend to spend my entire precious Day Off right here beside it.
DeleteIt feels good to have a pile of wood handy... wishing you cozy evenings by the fire.
ReplyDeleteAnd coming soon, entire days; starting in January I'll have a day off every week.
DeleteWe didn't get around to ordering any wood this year. We have a good pile left from last year, hoping it's enough!
ReplyDeleteSurplus is good!
DeleteWow, looks like you're prepared for a cozy winter, there's nothing quite like a fire! Jealous here: crappy gas fireplace with hideous fake logs, not the same at all.
ReplyDeleteHad to come check to see whether I'd answered you--only in my head!
ReplyDeleteNot the same, no, but you're in a nice warm climate.
I'm glad you got some wood, although it's been so long since I visited, your wood could be all gone! Hope not, and hope you have a lovely, warm and toasty Christmas!
ReplyDeleteMy entire lengthy reply has disappeared. Shorter me: nearly half of it is left, and I'm here on my unexpected Day Off (designed to prevent me from getting overtime on top of my overtime on Christmas) sitting beside the stove listening to the furnace not running for hours at a time. By the time I need more, I should be into January when I will have regular Days Off and can go get it myself.
