There is no Smoke without Fire

I have mentioned before that we have a very large log burner in the garage that has the capacity to provide heat and water for both houses. It is kept going continually at this time of year and is a great blessing in this cold weather. The chimney towers above the garage, not the most attractive but obviously essential. When it has just been filled it tends to smoke for a while and so an ideal opportunity for the prompt No. 24 Steam/ smoke/ mist.


A few mornings ago the sun was just peeping around the house and had an orange tinge.


This resulted in "orange smoke"!


I am sure that you can imagine that a lot of wood is required to keep the boiler going. I have mentioned before that it is from coppicing and dead wood from the woodland on the farm. We now have a store to keep us going for a considerable time. It also provides a great photo for No.17 Many.

  1. Oh I like the warmth from a wood fire. That is quite a lot of piled wood.

  3. Lovely orange smoke and a very enviable wood pile - presumably on pallets!
