Remember this picture? It shows our Wall of Wood we built up for the winter. It’s all gone now, but the weather is still chilly! So we scrounged some limbs that had been cut last spring and chopped them up into firewood. There are several trees that have died from the recent drought and are just waiting for the gentle touch of a chain saw to cut them into more carbon-producing heat makers for the house. Our only salvation from being called despoilers of the planet is our nearly 100% reliance on solar power for electricity. Besides, the amount of wood we burn every winter probably equals about one quadrillionth of what burns in the average wildfire. Or maybe not.
