Fuel




'Fuel' for Illustration Friday.
A pile of logs stored ready for the fire in winter, I'd love to have my own open fire or wood burning stove!

Who would think that logs could be so lovely!

Okay, the truth, it's really a photo? I really thought so at first, told myself, "oh, Cathy puts up photos on her blog now"... Amazing work! And speaking of work, I've lived in a house entirely warmed with wood/fire, it was a lot of work, full weekends of cutting/gathering wood (for the husband, not me!) - still, not so much fun...

This is great! Who knew a stack of wood could be so interesting. I love the browns and purples and the delicate lines. Nice job!

I shall look at the log store as a thing of beauty now, not just as a means of keeping warm!

Love the idea. Store piles of woods for the coming winter and indulge on the fire's heat.
