| I'm A Lumberjack Now, Baby | Jan 25, 2009 |
Oy, my achin' back. The eldest .r and I spent the afternoon chopping, sawing, stacking, and cursing (me, and under my breath) at a variety of woodstuffs around the place here. We had a lot of limbs, some fairly substantial, come down in the recent ice storm and it was time to harvest them for the woodstove.
We also recently came into a couple of free loads of wood, one oak, the other birch. Both are so fresh though that splitting the logs is almost impossible. Whack, whack, *mutter*, rub back, whack, roll back into the pile. Ah well, they'll be perfect next year.
We're gathered round the fire tonight as a roast cooks for seven hours in the oven. Not for dinner tonight, of course.
Happy weekend.
