Time for wood cutting!!

Well after signing the house contract, we decided it was a good time to look for fire wood. As we were driving down the dirt roads we came across a tree that someone had tried to fall but it ended up landing in the tree across the road. Guess they thought it would be to hard to cut up so they left it. It worked out perfectly for Chris and I to cut it, plus we needed to clear the road to get the truck through. By the time that we were done, only the very top of the tree was still left hanging from the trees across the road. Couldn't believe someone left a perfectly good Lodge Pole laying there!!! That kind of wood is like gold around here.

Ooops!! Guess they missed their target..... a bit.

No more tree across the road!!


My strong husband!!

Today was a great start to our 3 day weekend. Only a few more trips for wood and we will be nice and warm all winter long (which isn't too far off, it was 39 degrees out when I left for bible study this morning at 9:30 am).

God has truly blessed us today with the signing of the house contract and then the Lodge Pole that was just sitting there ready for us to take it. It took us less than an hour to get a truck load of wood. That is very fast!! We have seen so many blessings in our lives.

Brrrr!!! SO cold! It is so hard to imagine that weather. I am excited that it was only in the 90's today and not 100. LOL. It's so cool that God provided such a good nice piece of wood for you guys.
