The View Around Here ~ In the woods
September 28, 2012
It's wood weekend. We're renting a splitter with our friend/landlord and splitting a bunch of wood. We're sharing the work and we're sharing the wood to heat our homes this winter. We live in "woodsville" you could say. Our house is surrounded by woods. And stashed here and there and ...

March 23, 2012
