I Heart Firewood
Another winter.
Another woodpile. 2017-2018’s stash may not be as impressive in size as year’s past, but it’s significant for another
reason. For the first time, all the lumber
is homegrown, harvested, cut and split at Bon Bon Acres. The entire year we’ve been skidding downed trees and picking up
branches.
The little stuff is time-consuming
to both collect and stuff in the firebox, but it burns and keeps us toasty warm. While the process has certainly been a lot of work playing lumberjack is both fun and rewarding. Plus, there's the satisfaction that comes from going off the grid.
P. S. Special thanks are due our friend, Jeff, for all his hard work on behalf of this effort.

Pine Point Pond
Washington County Parks was busy
in late autumn making improvements to its lovely Pine Point Pond property. The work consisted of making horse and hiking
trails around the water. This pond is the sister to Bon Bon Pond (seen
beyond the road). Before the
intervention of man in the early 1900s, the ponds—along with the third Baird
Pond, which is located to the north of the railroad tracks—comprised one beautiful
small lake.
