my blood ran cold....

We went out wood-cutting today. And this is what I saw:


Tell me that photo doesn't make your blood run cold! Frightened the heck out of me but a boy's gotta do what a boy's gotta do.

A cup of tea and a lamington. Can you get any more Aussie than that without a BBQ?

-----------------------------------------------------
The road:

I wish I could post the smells of wet earth and leaves, the sound of the trees in the breeze, and the perfect birdsong (till the chainsaw started up anyway)

----------------------------------------------------


The end result. This means a toasty warm house for the next few weeks (:

* The Handsome Son was NOT allowed to actually cut the wood, either with an axe OR the chainsaw. And his dad was supervising carefully. Just sayin'.

  6. Mmmm ... I can smell that fresh-cut wood from here ...

    It's always scary seeing little ones doing "Big Boy" stuff ... you must be very calm to have been able to take that photo. :)
