WOODPILE continued from 41
to keep workmen warm. Nails and wood screws from scrap tossed in the ash bucket soon created complaints as workmen drove our hill. They handed me the bill to repair a flat tire. So the boys and I remembered to sift through the ashes before spreading.
Near an abandoned wood pile furthest from the house, stands an old and seemingly inactive brush pile. Constructed of limbs, branches, and tops of trees buzzed-up for wood, the debris pile never disappoints with wildlife tracks and signs. At first snowfall, I check to see what bird or critter spent the night in a comfortable and secure refuge out of the wind— a benefit of this wonderful Brown County natural resource.
Every man looks at his woodpile with a kind of affection. I loved to have mine before my window, and the more chips the better to remind me of my pleasing work.
