Hard Labor – Aug 24

Tallahassee / Quincy, Florida

Today was another humid sweltering day in the south, … temperature on my back deck was 98 degrees and per the Weather Channel, the heat index was again over 110 degrees. Nevertheless, it is almost the end of August and like it or not the work for getting firewood together for the coming summer is upon us now. Due to the hurricanes and tropical stores, I was able to pick and choose from several downed oaks and maple trees, and spent the day with the chain saw and the tractor hauling and stacking all this. I had to go slow, … for the heart condition doesn’t play games, … but I worked up a hard sweat anyway and all-in-all had a satisfying day.
Stacking wood, … a guy thing, … cause’ the Gals won’t do it.

Wait a minute! You mean you ACTUALLY used my chain saw to finish up that tree? I'll have to come over to see that for myself. LOL I find it difficult to believe, since you still had both your legs and all your fingers when you all came over for dinner.

(still chuckling) I don't know why you stacked the wood so high John. You know Gerie's going to have a tough time getting any of that wood down for the fireplace.

That's a fine looking stack o' wood for next winter.
