    Deep stuff. No wonder I find myself in the Zen zone whenever I’m in the process.

    Leaving the poetic out, a woodpile just looks good, especially when you have made it.

    To me my woodpiles remind me of money in the bank this time of year.

    Also my wood piles brighten my mood with memories of being out in the woods cutting, as well as memories of being outdoors splitting and stacking. These activities are good for one’s mental and physical health.

    Woodpiles also represent a satisfying visual representation of goals that have been achieved.
