*******Maybe This Link Will Get You To My Tick Tock Channel******* I’ve officially given up on a roaring fire for the next few months….. …..or more….. It’s hard feeling in the mood for a roasty/toasty fire when it’s in the 90’s or above ….. Before cleaning out the ashes for the coming summer….. …..I was able to eke in a couple small morning fires recently this last week….. It actually got down to 58F degrees one night….. …..my rule is……..

I want one of these things… *****A Froe***** Why won’t my computer let me type this word? It’s a real word… *****Froe Definition***** It has a real definition… Froe.  Froe.  Froe.  Froe.  Froe.  Froe.  Froe.  Froe… …..I want one. …….we’ve previously established that I am a not-so-latent pyromaniac… …….I just like fires and smoke…….I don’t like to burn important things…….except for maybe my fingers & (on occasion) my eyebrows… I currently smell like smoke from working with my bees this…

  Esther gave me a fireplace log-in-a-bag. Who knew!?!             Ignitable logs in bags(?) ……………..Esther handed it to me in a Dillard’s bag (hence the “designer log” name/Esther shops at Dillard’s a lot/I’m more of a GoodWill shopper). The log had extensive, multi-lingual directions. It told me what to do and warned me against the obvious. Of course, I ignited it immediately and started it burning.   The darn thing even had a burning duration…

  Last year I think our first fire in our fireplace was earlier. It could have been earlier this year…………if I had just gotten everything organized a little sooner. I have been accumulating palmetto sticks and wood piles and brush piles all over this property………………in anticipation of burning them when it gets close to cold enough. Good wood; bad wood; aged wood; wet wood; green wood……………..I’ll burn anything……………(but, no pine). (Pyromaniacs are like that…)   The wood’s out there…………………it beckons…

Everyone is tired.  There’s still more to do…………..there’s always more to do.  Everything would be so much easier if this was all happening in November’s cooler/dryer weather.  But the temperature is in the 90’s and the humidity level has got to be 246%+.  If it weren’t for all of the suspended, microbial algae in the air—–this could probably qualify for an expensive spa/steam-room treatment…………..but you can’t charge for this soggy treat.  My lungs are an agar-filled, petri dish for the…
