We heated our old house exclusively with wood. We have a fireplace insert at our new house, but we also use gas heat (which is good because my bedroom is at the opposite end of the house from the fireplace).
We have a lot of downed trees from the construction on our new farm. A couple of weeks ago, Dad said it was time to start splitting the logs that were too big to fit in the fireplace. Colter was prepared to split it all by hand, but fortunately we have a neighbor who has a hydraulic splitter*.
Because he’s awesome, he came over and helped Colter learn how to use it.
Hewitt spent the whole day moving wood.
“It was hard work, but we got a lot done!”
“There was a LOT of wood.”
“But I’m strong enough to take care of it!”
I’m really grateful that I have such strong brothers to take care of work like this, so I don’t have to!
