I love firewood and I think a lot of men love firewood too. What is it about the collection of wood for a guy? Many women have asked this question, along with many others and we men don't know the answer. I have yet to have the honor of owning a house with a fireplace or wood burner. Our next home (we move in August 30th!!) has neither, but I plan build a nice outdoor fire pit just to collect wood and burn it and then collect again only to burn it.If you come across a man that has firewood you will notice two particular traits. First, the stack of wood is perfectly organized. All logs will be neatly stacked. Good luck getting a guy to dust the inside of the house, but if you asked him to split wood for 4 hours and then stack the wood in a neat pile, then you have a laborer. Second, the stack of wood will be large enough to survive 47 North Dakota winters. The stack could possibly get down to 32 winters, but more than likely the man will find more wood.
Regardless of your sex, we all enjoy a nice fire. Whether it is along the shore of a lake, deep in the back-country or in the comforts of our homes, the snap, crack and smell of a fire can't be beat. So raise your drink of choice, and salute to fire!!
God Bless and thanks for reading.
