We borrowed a log splitter today - wow, was that nice! We had pretty widespread tree devastation from that freak February snow storm, and have been making slow but steady progress on getting it cleaned up before fire season. We've done 9 burn piles and stacked about 3 cords of wood. Crazy!

Talking of anecdotes

Kid 2 said that while in Texas... he would get a bit warm, and want to cool down....so he would open the front door..... and then go "Oh! Right!"

After a lifetime of opening the front door to cool down the house.....

He said he was surprised how often he would forget.... and start to open the door there in Texas... in order to cool down.

The wall of heat slamming into him was a quick reminder of where he was.
