Nice news today.

All this week expect kindling (for the fire that needs to be lit.)

• it's only small stuff but people are noticing.

(idiots locked them up: nothing to do so of course they are looking around)

Next month start gathering the logs - careful: snakes in the pile, bears in the caves..

April's starting a fire, will it catch, damp logs moss & crap, smokey as hell

May: logs are catching, embers building

June: burning nicely, wood pile almost all done.

July what perfect timing, quick clean up

then off to the beach for a well earned break and cold beer.

relax, all still on course.
