Dugout Continued

Spent part of yesterday carving. The other part, reading. Oh, and the other part hauling in snow-covered fuelwood for the FMO woodstove.


If you're interested in following the further progress of the SunBurn dugout canoe, you'll find it all at my very personal, artist blog, Bill Pocock (billpocock.blogspot.com).

Happy Holidays!

Sun Burned

Swing on by my Bill Pocock blog and marvel at a winter solstice celebration gone rather wrong.

Still, it's a laugh.

Sunburn Prep: Where'd Everything Go?

I made it to the winter solstice SunBurn grounds with the snowmobile - finally.

We've had A LOT of snow dumped in Deerwood Forest over the last three weeks. I could see where the burn pile was buried, but couldn't see where that big log was that I hope to carve into a canoe on the night of the burn. I mean start to carve on Dec. 21st.

I finally located the top of the log under about a foot
and a half of snow.

And with some effort, dug the snow away. I had dreams
of rolling it up closer to the bonfire location. No chance now.


I laugh because it's all a joke. I has to be a joke.
Just has to be!!!


Here's a photo of the burn pile as I found it.


Here's the after snow removal photo.
