Wood for the Fire

When we first got to New Zealand there wasn't very much wood in the garage.  There were about three long, tall stacks.  We used those up quickly!  A few days ago, we just got like, five more stacks about the same size.  Damon, Elena and I did a lot of unloading and stacking it.  Mom came and helped after finishing the laundry.  Elena, Mom and I carried wood to Damon so that he could stack it.  Without thinking we put those logs in front of the few older logs we had left.  When we put a few of the new logs in the fire, the logs didn't start very well!  The wood turned out to be a little wet.  We were cold in our house while we tried the new wood out.  So finally Damon and I had to make a small opening in the wood pile to get to the dry wood.
