You've certainly achieved a lot this week, well done Suzi. I agree with the previous comment, you should get that wood off the ground and stack it, on the ground it will soak up water and moisture from the ground.

Hi Susie, many mentions re your logs for Winter and suggestions about placing them on pallets. I'm wondering about the carport being a drier option ..or does roof leak badly. At least on a dbl pallet base, and a plastic cover the wind wont blow the rain in. Always projects when you have a property! Keeps one fit! Have a good week! Cheers.

I love the windows and door. I always prefer the "stained" look over just choosing a color of paint. Of course, depends on the situation but I do love seeing the wood grain. I would definitely stack that wood off the ground. I used to just get 2 or 3 cinder blocks and planks of wood, and stack on top of that, or a pallet situation.

I love the natural grain in wood too. Thank you for your idea about how to raise the wood off the ground as one pallet wouldn’t be sufficient. I have some concrete bocks I can use 😀💕

Pointing looks great. Keep going. Guttering is a must and will stop the walls from getting so wet. You might be able harvest the rainwater to a tank. The wood should be stacked but looks to big for a log burner and may need cutting in half. 😢

Your fence blends in well with your garden. The pointing looks great. In small bursts pointing could be quite therapeutic😊. We’ll all be battening down for the wet week ahead. That guttering would come in handy. Take care❤.

It’s a good idea to stack your wood pile on a pallet . It keeps an air flow underneath, it helps to keep it drier ,lifting it off the damp ground when wet winter starts.

Hi Susie. You can get bags for grouting similar to piping bags for icing cakes. Or a heavy duty plastic bag and cut the corner off. This will get the grout deep into joints. Let it almost set before taking off surplus.

Hi Suzi, the change of weather is so energizing for you! That wall is beautiful! Congrats! A feature! Do you really have to point it? How about a varnish to keep the colours vibrant? Thankyou for the donkey farm and Roger visit. Hopefully lots of new grass will pop up soon for them to graze. The water transfer worked well so you must be relieved. The air is so clean, with only i car driving on your road, so thats a bonus! Take good care...🌼🐝🌻🍇🍷

Donkeys are work animals and like to be kept busy. They are gentle creatures if you treat them right. We had one, and I loved riding him around the village. My mom kept 100 chickens at our small homestead and sold them to neighbors. Our donkey is how we got around. I live in the USA now, but I treasure these sweet memories! 🇵🇹❤🇵🇹
