Timber

So the menfolk are out to destroy things today, namely trees. They're taking their trucks and chainsaws and flannelwear out to the woods for a day of manliness.

Oh, how far we have come from the Ojai environmental clubs. ("Keep the Sespe Wild!") The hillbillies are sucking us into their nefarious, tree-felling ways.

As long as I don't have to see another $400 propane bill, kill them. Kill them all. (Except the pretty fir ones. Ooh, and the poplars.)

My husband went out to do the exact same thing today. . .we won't use nearly as much wood as you will this winter, but it DOES get chilly in Houston every once in awhile.

Chilly in Houston? Forgive me my incredulity if you will, but I have a hard time swallowing that one. Granted I’ve only been there in July, but I felt like I was swimming through a hot tub the moment I set foot outside the airport. For a moment I flashed back to Bangkok, Thailand.

Anywho, yea, we had fun pretending to be mountain men.

I've been to Houston during November. It was cold for about 10 minutes.

Rox - you know those gulf coast fireplaces are just for looks. Put on a sweater and cozy up to the burly man - and save a tree ;)
