I've still got two more boxes to fill but I have more than enough wood to cut to fill them both. I know some people just throw their logs into a pile but I like a neat stack. It also helps to keep the wood dry and well seasoned. The electric chain saw I purchased earlier in the year is a real success. Not only is it powerful enough to cut through the thickest logs it is also remarkably quiet and therefore I'm not disturbing the neighbours.

This photo was taken from the front door looking up the drive - a photo just doesn't capture the magic of the evening.
