I don't really need a reason ...do I?


We finally cracked open that guineafowl egg




You can see the difference in size compared to a regular egg. 
It's going to take a lot of those eggs to handle a hungry man.

Hey we need a woodburner ... okay I'll get right on it.

When you live in the country you should always have a secondary heat source in the 
event of a power outage. We kept our eye out, got a woodburner at a really good deal 
from the local Trading Post and once we decided on the placement I started the install.


Prepped and ready for stone


I collected stone from the creek bed, cutted them down to size 
and Judith and the kids cleaned them up


Mapping out the stones


Got my rhythm going


Almost done


The next day the mantle went up


Sealed and ready for grout


Through the roof and ready for the chimney pipe


Double wall to single wall


Silas showing off the new stove


Dad there a fire in there



Warm and toasty


Judith turns ...
