How Much Wood...

We FINALLY made it up to the cabin this weekend!  After the carnival and cleanup, we headed up to Blue Ridge.  There have been storms there just like at home and there were a lot of branches down all around the cabin.  Jim and Carolyn cleaned up the smaller branches and Coleman and Christian manned the ax!

(Doesn't Christian look OLD in this photo?)
 They chopped and chopped until all of the limbs were a more manageable size.
 Jim had this one convinced that it was a good workout for his lacrosse shot!
 I can remember splitting wood with my dad-I thought I was so grown up!

I've never used an axe before.

I remember gathering wood and splitting logs with my dad too, but it was for our wood burning stove that kept our house in Mississippi warm through the ice storms.

I didn't feel grown up, I felt like a slave....
