Man that wood stove feels good!

All the cutting, splitting, stacking, more stacking, and cleaning up is all worth it when the weather turns this chilly. Just finished dumping wood where I'll finish stacking the six or seven cords I split earlier this year. A friend of mine let me use his Kubota tractor, whcih has a 1/2 yard scoop and a backhoe on it to get the wood from where I split it to where it is stacked for future use. Back gets a little sore from all the bending this way and that, but when your sitting in front of the tube with the stove going, well little else needs to be said. Merry Christmas everyone.

I worked outside for 10-12 years.
Nothing better than a real fire afterwards.
Lived in a condo with a fireplace for three years.
