stovewood

After morning barn chores each day, it's time to fetch in more wood for the stove.
Got to the bottom of the first pallet this week.


Started on the second pallet:



Every morning I load up the smaller cargo sled.
It's enough stovewood for one day.



The next step is pulling the sled around to the portico and unloading it stick by stick into a log tote. It usually takes five or six trips with the tote to empty the sled. Since I can't walk through my house wearing cleats, the boots and gaiters have to come off before I can carry a tote through the kitchen to the parlor.



And there's another warm day and night for Moxie and Della and me
 and the water lines (so far, fingers crossed).
How are your mornings going?

  1. It looks like your wood is warming you one extra time over the usual two -- lugging it indoors. Keep warm!
