Today my Gathering group met out in daboonies of Beavercreek, in a cozy log home heated only by a woodstove. We girls gathered in the warm family room and were glad to be together.

Outside was a huge pile of logs that will eventually be cut up for firewood. This is often how wood is delivered here in Oregon; a log truck delivers the logs and eventually the homeowner will get out a log splitter and chainsaw and cut them up into firewood, giving the wood a year to cure.

I wish I’d been here to see the logs delivered!
