The porcupine breaks many twigs from the pine tree at the center of this picture. The tree was in the same state last year and there is a clear path where the bark is more worn. I wonder what’s special about this tree that the porcupine took a liking to it.

Kettle to the metal
We’ve been having static electricity problem in the house so we decided to take humidification seriously. Pots filled with water on the stove tend to be noisy so it was time to go legit with an actual kettle.
Friends gave us this great device
one vinegar bath later, it’s back in business.
We haven’t had static electricity issues since the kettle came online, unlike its modern counterparts, it will never break.
Cool frost pattern
We upgraded our wood splitting setup with an old tire
