    I was doing pretty good this winter and then the snow and crap weather hit. So I had lots of down time.
    Yesterday I start off with a decent size ash I got it down and bucked up and cleaned up some of the limbs. Switched gears and cleaned and put away saws and changed oil in wife's car

    Then helped father in law put new brake lines on a truck last night. Now I have 24 hrs to go on my shift at work and I don't feel like getting out of my truck ugh I hurt and even have a little sunburn too. It's tough getting back in the groove

    It was downright sunny here today. If our pasty white fire watching bodies were out today, you'd get some color that's for sure.

    It's funny how the routine jobs of the 3 seasons of the year take a toll on the body when winter hits.
    Snow removal and some outdoor jobs keep you in touch but when you get going again it lets you know.

    So what was the cause of you handling refractory, RND? Work, or building a rocket stove?!
