We had some big trees fall around the perimeter of our property last fall and winter. Now that warmer weather is here we've begun the task of cleaning it up. It really has been an enjoyable job. Just getting outside is a treat in itself so the task at hand didn't seem like too much of a chore. And each night after we've worked for several hours with the chainsaw, hauling and stacking wood, this is what we treat ourselves too.
This is one of my favorite things about spring. We begin the evening ritual of fires that last well into the fall. We don't do it every night but at least a few times a week we love to sit around the fire. Some of our best family conversations take place here. We solve the world problems, we laugh, and talk about anything and everything.
It beats sitting in front of the TV any night.
