Well with lows in the 50's and highs in the 70's fall is officially on
the way. I found myself so excited I started reaching for the wool
jacket, but we're not quite there yet so I thought better of it. Well I
had some free time to kill so I headed to the woods with my favorite
woods roaming buddy. Nothing particular on the agenda except taking in
an early evening and a nice hot drink for a welcome Fall toast.
Making our way to the timber
bel was as excited as I was to get back out
We found a good spot in the shade with some old felled trees that made for a nice camp setup
Using some good ol USA steel to clear the camp area and start some wood prep
a good helper
gettin some shavings ready
took some doing but they finally went up
a pot heating up is always a good sight
about a 5 minute boil time give or take, not too bad
reward of hot tea and coco. A good way to welcome fall
after that we packed up. We had dug a small hole to put the fire in so
when we were finished we poured some water over the coals and then
buried it easily. No trace
All in all a good time. It felt good to be in the woods again. Looking forward to colder temps and more ventures.
thanks for looking

You've got to love fall! Glad you were able to get out for a little while.
ReplyDeleteThanks Corey. Hopefully the cooler weather continues. A harsh winter sounds fun :)
DeleteYour little helper sure is cute. Maybe Lumber Jack will want to go next time. ;-)
ReplyDelete-- Love, Your Wife
She is and LumberJack wishes he was going. He'd probably fit in the pack so it's a possibility :)
DeleteOh, I knew you two would be out soon. Love the pics. Keep them coming.
ReplyDeleteThose are summer temperatures here in Finland. ;) Glad to see you're getting out!
