Splitting logs.
Fendre des bûches
Splitting logs
English version below the picture
A la fin d’ Octobre, vous avez encore le loisir d'admirer les dernières fleurs en fleurs (voir l'entrée précédente) mais vous sentez aussi que le froid arrive C'est pourquoi, après le rêve parmi les beautés du jardin, vous avez à travailler pour préparer l'hiver. Janine allume déjà la cheminée le soir. Nous avons des bûches de bois, mais pour allumer le feu des bûches beaucoup plus minces de bois sont nécessaires. Dernièrement, après le salut aux fleurs que j'ai commencé à commencé à fendre quelques bûches
Voici l'homme en action. Il a l'air solide. Oui, mais qui sait? Peut-être est-ce seulement une apparence et pendant un temps bref. Quoi qu'il en soit, ce qui doit être fait doit être fait. N’est-ce pas une bonne règle de vie. A appliquer quand nous le pouvons.
It is heavy this wood splitter maul, do you know ? Il est lourd ce merlin, savez-vous? photos Janine Fauquet Octobre 2014
At the end of October you still have the leisure to admire the last flowers in bloom ( see the previous entry) but you feel also the coming cold . It‘s why after the dream among the beauties of the garden you have to work to prepare the winter . Janine already lights the fireplace at night . We have logs of wood but to start the fire much thinner logs of wood are needed . Lately after the salute to the flowers I started to split some logs .
Here is the man in action. He looks strong . Yes, but who knows? Perhaps is it only an appearance, for a short time Whatever, what is to be done must be done . Is not a good rule of life. To apply when we can.

What is the saying, "A man who chops his wood is twice warmed"! Wonderful pictures. Yet another season is upon us. All too soon! The year is flying. Love to all <3

You work hard, Michel. And yes, that is a good rule of life. And things must be done.
Cold weather is coming - all too soon. Hugs and love, Char
a good job for a man ~ splitting wood ~ my husband and sons have split a lot of wood in their day ~
This is the first time I have seen a country gentleman, chopping the wood for the fireplace, IN A SUIT JACKET AND HAT! Way to go Michel! Love that picture. More power to you.
Love,
Zakiah.
Spitting logs is nothing like splitting hairs, eh?
Yes, those wood splitters are heavy, and yes you must be strong.
Who took the pictures?
the picture of the log splitting have been taken by my wife Janine .
You know, Lynn, I cannot make this physical exercise too long at once
You are a man of many dimensions, Michel.
There is your faithful hat having more adventures!
Yes, a good strong man of action doing what needs to be done!
A fire in the fireplace on cold nights is a soothing romantic setting!
HUGS!!!
Hard work Michel but so worth the wonderful heat from your fireplace.
Nothing more cozy than a fire in the fire place to warm the heart and soul.
Ty fo your comments on my photo of Ali looking at the bug on the ceiling, and yes her nose looks good. She is doing good and I need to do an update on her.
TY so very much for your comment on my photo of TD texting with our great grandson.
A great set of action photos! Kudos to Janine for her photographic excellence. Also the work may be hard but you look strong and dapper in the hat and coat!
Splitting wood is hard work! You are doing good in more ways than one.
I agree with the stability of the world. There are a lot of angry people being inflamed by angry people. Scary and sad because life can be beautiful if we make that choice.
Hope your Sunday is wonderful!
Good Afternoon, Michel You are a hard working man.
My wife loves our fireplace and is already using it.
Lovely photos.

I did a little of that this summer but I found my back isn't as strong as it used to be. It's good to see you're still around.
Glad to see you, too, Mark.
I split the logs from time to time and during a short time . I have also back problems but for me , they handicap me for the walk but doesn't bother me to dig out the ground or clip the hedges or split the wood. Weird, don't you think.?
Good morning Michel and Ty your comment on my photo of the wilting, dining dahlia and it's beauty.
I'm so sorry I got so far behind. It is more difficult to be every where every day that I want to be. Not just on the internet, but here too.
I see you listed so many of our friends now gone. Thank you for including our son.
Nice to be prepared for winter..... Great pictures too. I remember too our lost Xanga friends..... They are missed.
Cela me rappelle mon propre grand-père dans les années 50 ... et je l'aidais ensuite à empiler le bois ...
Délicieux souvenirs!
