This was not expected - Dealing with the aftermath - Day 99

The past two weeks have been a blur. We burned the 300' brush pile, and the following day, it rained. It rained HARD. Enough to put out all of our hot embers that we planned on piling on top of for the next few days. Zero chance of rain, my butt!! It wasn't supposed to rain for four days after the fire.

I suppose it's a blessing in disguise, though, as we can now salvage most of the larger trees without all the brush in our way. A family friend is taking the logs to the local sawmill, and I'm putting a lot of hours on the tractor moving and pushing and sorting and cutting and moving and moving and moving stuff.

This is the first phase of the adventure where I drastically underestimated the time involved. Before the fire, we were about a month behind schedule. I think we're about a month and a week behind schedule now. But then again, how can someone accurately predict a six-month schedule when the weather is so unpredictable? To say that I'm learning a lot along the way is a drastic understatement. I've learned more in the past few months than I have in the past few years. Crash course in this adventure we call life!
