Yesterday Frank and his brother Maarten were sawing and cutting wood for both homes. It was a lot of hard work, but they did one terrific job. The wood came from an old bridge, which we got hold of through Frank's job. Since the wood if full of very big screws and such, it isn't suitable for anything else and if we hadn't taken it, it would have gone to the dump. Speaking of central heating, when the men were working in front of our house in the street (our garden isn't big enough to do this kind of work), one lady who passed by asked if we didn't have central heating. Another lady passing by said they were 'real men', which I can wholeheartedly agree with. I spent the day keeping the men fed (very important!), doing some shopping and going to the birthday of one of the children of good friends, who happen to live in our street. Here are some pictures of my hard-working men and of our wood storage, we have more wood than would fit in there, but that's stored in the old rabbit pen, where we'll build a chicken coop in the spring.
blessings, Ellen

This way it will keep our home warm and we'll save a lot on natural gas, because we won't have to use the central heating.
They had a lot of attention from passers-by, since this is something not many people do, especially in the city.
