I Bought Wood Today

Well, the title more or less says it all. It is getting colder, night seems to be coming before I get home from work, and now that I have a set of fireplace tools (purchased at a huge discount during early summer) I got a biggish pack of firewood at the grocery store this morning. Oddly, it says on the label of white birch logs: "Another fine product from Estonia's forests!" Maybe I'm missing out, but this is my first product from Estonia's forests (or anywhere else in Estonia for that matter) and I'm having trouble thinking of what else these trees can give us except wood. Oxygen? That's going to be a tough sell.

    What are the "other fine products?" Maybe this is something SprayOnSalt should investigate. It is odd to think that it is a bargain to import wood from Estonia. There might be another interesting story there. I guess DC doesn't have folks driving around selling wood out of the back of pick up trucks. There is something the mid-west abounds in.
