This is a very small pile of enormous chunks of tree:

The pile behind the house is a LOT bigger.

We rolled, heaved and wheelbarrowed it all into a huge heap.

I was probably not as much help as I could have been, because I stopped to look at the ivy,

And the rings,

and take pictures of the proceedings.

I also took this picture of the back of the van once we’d finished unloading it

The blue patch was originally covered with a flattened cardboard box…

(Edit for Skybright: the wood’s for DB’s parents: They have a wood burning stove, we have the woodpile and the woodsplitter…)
