There was a time when a man’s woodpile said something about him.
Straight fences.
Tight stacks.
Tools put away.
Land cared for.
These old skills may not seem important anymore, but I think something valuable is lost when men stop working with their hands and taking pride in simple things.
Today we’re stacking and splitting Douglas fir firewood for next winter, putting more wood into the new woodshed, talking about the old ways, craftsmanship, country living, and why consistency matters more than intensity.
The old timers used to say:
“A tight woodpile is the measure of a man.”
I think there’s still truth in that.
