Cordwood Build: Take 2

Building

We are back to work at the cordwood house.  The first step was to get a work station set up and a path to it.

There are a bunch of Hemlock throughout the area.  They will but cut and used for posts for the house.  (Not that dead one.)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Step 2 will be to start sorting out rocks, clay, and wood.  All will be used for materials for the house or the gardens.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Meanwhile, the potatoes are getting out of control…
