The Woodpile...





"Every man looks at his wood pile with a kind of affection."
Henry David Thoreau


When we lived in Glendale...TheChief prided himself on his woodpile resourcefulness!!!  
We had plenty of wood each winter to burn our little fires in the fireplace to our heart's content.
When we bought our place up here...we realized that a pellet stove is much more efficient 
for actual warmth...so we replaced the old woodburner with a new efficient 
pellet stove...

There's still a flame...but I think TheChief misses his woodpile!!!

(This is the woodpile at our special place in Sequoia!!!)


Linking to the Weekend in Black and White...

  2. You have photographed one of my favorite things to shoot....woodpiles. I am fascinated about how one is so different from the other. So many people use wood for heat in our area there are lots of woodpiles. This macro is wonderful in b/w. genie
