First Fire of the Season

I enjoyed my first fire of the season yesterday after returning home from a week at Jekyll Island. Cold weather arrived while I was away so the cabin was chilled to the bone. The seasoned cherry from last winter and the pond pine that Jack brought me made for easy fire-starting. Later I added some of the new "green" wood that I recently cut to create a slow-burning fire that lasted through the night.

I woke up early this morning, well before sunrise and added a few logs to the stove. It was black-dark outside—no moon light coming through the windows. I sat by the fire wrapped in a blanket, drinking coffee, and reading. It's good to be home.

The squirrels are banging around on the front porch, demanding that I put out more sunflower seed so I better go meet their demands.

That's the latest from my country life. Wishing you well.
Pat
