Load of wood for Josh

December 1, 2012

Well, I would give you a ride, but there is no room right now 😮 We filled this wagon on Friday in between deer hunts. So far the deer are staying hid. At least we got some wood for my son Josh. He is almost done for this year.

I think wood should be cut stacked and drying by June for the year it will be burnt and that is pushing it. A year ahead is much better. My boys however, seem too busy until it starts to get cold. Then we are jumping through hoops trying to get done before the snow is waist deep.

I will push them harder next year to be done sooner. We could hunt more, pick corn or other fall jobs … instead of being “behind the eight ball” in the wood department. I also like the idea of starting to slow down in autumn..getting ready for winter.

This time of year is a good time for butchering, making deer sausage and smoking meat. There are no flies and its cool for working. Cutting wood makes me sweat no matter what time of year it is!

Twenty-four days until Christmas, where did the year go? I’m sure I missed some of it working, but it has been a productive year. The blessings abound. I’ll get the wagon empty in time for snowy rides and hot chocolate…then you can ride 😮
