Logs!

Fresh in from our new log man. Nice enough chap.

We’re in one of the hottest spells of the summer, but it still feels autumnal in the mornings and afternoons. It’s like that here. It will feel good to have a full wood store.

This pile won’t last through the winter, even with the help of central heat. Our stove is very greedy.

So is stacking the fire wood a one person job or two?
You haven’t mentioned cats lately. My cat loved a fresh log to claw, and never bothered the furniture after I learned keep one in the house. (I saw him clawing one outside.) So I kept a log in the bathroom where his litter box was, and one in a corner of the kitchen. He liked the bark side best.

Huh, I figured that was a tree from Ikea.

That’s some mighty fine looking wood. Clean, mostly straight grain, should split nicely.

We still have our very fat cat, Deborah. We’ve now lost two to the road, so our rule is we can’t take one in unless it turns up on our doorstep.

Pity. Two is the ideal number of cats.

Do they sell wood by the cord, or is there some metric system measure?

Beware: more than one link in a comment is apt to earn you a trip to the spam filter, where you will remain -- cold, frightened and alone -- until I remember to clean the trap. But, hey, without Akismet, we'd be up to our asses in...well, ass porn, mostly.
