    If you make the effort....show intention....show desire to work
    for what it is you desire, the Lord will see and help you along the way.

    The past couple of weeks I have missed a couple of CL scores.
    Last night we had a punishing rain storm. Heavy rain driven by high winds.
    The building I work in was flooded. No work today. Nice.
    Out for a bonus bike ride. A mile out coming back home, passed a guy cutting up
    a big maple limb blow down. Got home grabbed my saw and stuff and headed back.
    Got a half load of good maple. Nice. Made a lunch and decided to check the
    FB maket place. Just looked at it for the first time last night. A listing for a maple
    tree just taken down. Come get the wood. Sent a message. Still there. About
    6 miles from my house. My wood chore duties for the year are done.
    Replaced all the wood I burned last year.

    Amen. And if you can find someone in need, share with them, and watch GOD multiply your blessings.

    Last year we burned maybe a cord and half.
    It was a very warm, dry winter.
    Plus I was burning that old oak.
    It's a whole new perspective on wood burning,
    when I'm used to burning pine.
    A normal, cold winter we will burn 3 cords.
