A FIRE AT OUR LITTLE PLACE BACK IN THE HILLS

Hello friends,
I must apologize for not keeping our sites updated more regularly.
At first I wasn't going to say anything about our fire but I wanted to share with you
the main reason there has been a lot going on here on our little place.
We have had several setbacks, one is due to recently having had a fire and have lost most of our stored items. He has been working hard trying to rebuild our storage shed and that has been tedious not having any extra funds for supplies.
We lost all our tarps, our back-up kerosene heater, most of our harvested cedar and house lumber, some tools, our weedwhacker, a shed full of odds and ends, too many other things to mention.


We have been trying to go thru the wood from our fire and salvage what we can.
It saddens me to see the fire damage to all of our timber wood and miscellaneous 'store bought' lumber we were harvesting & collecting to build our home and workshed. Every time I see the damage, I realize that It could have been so much worse. We were also very lucky that it did not spread to our trailer.


Here is what our wood looks like now...
