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.
