Another beautiful day in the SLV. It was so nice that we decided we could always use another load of firewood so we headed to the mountains. We packed sandwiches and snacks and met our friend, Geo, on the Rock Creek road. Geo is the chainsaw master and if it weren't for him, we'd have no firewood. I don't want to sound mean but Bill is extremely mechanically challenged and has a hard time when it comes to operating any type of machinery. Geo does the cutting while Bill loads the trucks, it's a good arrangement and works well for each of them.
Jamie was so excited to go to the mountains. He helped Bill load the truck for a little while but didn't like being around the chainsaw too much as it was noisy. The mountains are a good place for a little boy to find a lot of dirt to play in. We were smart enough to bring along his big dump truck, which he had a grand time filling with dirt, rocks, twigs, pine needles and whatever else he could find that would fit. He'd fill the dump truck, "drive" it a few feet and dump the load, then go back for more. It is amazing how long he can keep himself occupied with such a simple task!
