Go away! OK, back to the real world after that sojourn into immaterial substances. Oh, but first, I’m about a quarter through Charles Williams’ War in Heaven. It’s amusingly serious thus far and I can sense opposite sides in the war getting their acts together, although at this point they’re a long way from heaven. Thanks Methodius for suggesting this unusual book.
But back to the real world: Yesterday was exceptionally beautiful, mid-seventies, plenty of sun, minimal horsefly presence. But today we’re back to 60F and rain. A glance at the weather predictions on TV shows rain clouds for the rest of the week. I guess yesterday was a “breeder day”, as Aunt Clara was wont to say. Well, we do need the rain.
It was good we got all the firewood stacked in the woodshed yesterday. I rearranged the remaining wood first and then Nye single-handedly brought in and neatly stacked the fresh cord of wood we got a couple days ago. So, we’re all set for winter now, and none of the wood got rained on. I’ll insert a photo of the wood piles here when it stops raining. Nothing like nice neatly stacked piles of wood!
There’s actually a cord of wood stacked on the left.

Hi Mardé,
I can sympathise for the weather. On our side of the Atlantic, it has been pretty bad throughout June, and for the greater part of July.Grrr… will summer ever make it over?
Maine being “snow country” in winter, that means for lots of planning to stockpile wood.I know of a French region where it is very much the same.
You have to be a chipmunk during the summer, to stay warm & cozy in winter !Have a nice day my friend.
