Word Burner
We have been spending time up at our new place in Healdsburg and Mommie and Daddy have been working very hard to get everything ready to show our friends. I have been lucky enough to come along and play with Nona while Mommie and Daddy work. In the family room there is this really neat stove that the people used to heat the house in the winter time. I love crawling over to it and putting on the really cool black dust all over my clean clothes. Mommie doesn't seem as amused as I do though. Daddy told me a story today about when he was little. Pappa Tom put Daddy's computer in the basement where it was really cold and that motivated Daddy to want to go out and chop down trees to burn in their stove. It was his job to keep the stove going all winter long. But for some reason Daddy kept calling it a word burning stove. Silly Daddy, it's a WOOD burning stove! I am looking forward to going out and learning how to chop down trees too. I saw the new chainsaw in the barn and boy does that look like fun!
