Like many a rural Canadian, its the time of the year to stack firewood for the coming winter.
I was about a quarter of the way through when I took this shot yesterday and my wife's parking spot will be usable before noon. Then I can take a break and finally decide whether to paint minis or play a game.
The real issue there, is having difficulty deciding what era and what sort of scenario to play.
(...and yes, that's a call for requests and suggestions.)
Born and raised in the suburbs of Montreal 7 decades ago. Began playing with toy soldiers at 5 years. Started painting & converting at about 12 yrs and wargaming about 15 yrs. Never really stopped.
5 years in the Black Watch of Canada Cadets, 5 years at the Collège militaire royal de Saint-Jean followed by 4 in the navy. 25 years with CPC in IT simultaneous with 23 years running a boarding kennel. Inherited my love of toy soldiers from my mother's father. Married with a pack of litle Italian Greyhounds and a cat. Prematurely retired and enjoying leisure to game, maintaining our 170 yr old farmhouse and just living.
I remember those days of "wood-getting" as a lad. Those days are long gone. Will your arms be too tired to wield a paintbrush after these exertions?
ReplyDeleteNope. But. I need to do some casting to flush out the on hand recruits. Might get there today
DeleteAfter all the wood gathering, how about a nice relaxing Gathering of Hosts ?
ReplyDeleteThe Valdurian forces held a muster a couple of days ago and are raising more levies.
DeleteTime for the least used figures to see daylight
ReplyDeleteMy thought as well
DeleteI always enjoy seeing the Prince Valiant figures on the table. Even though it makes me regret selling mine!
ReplyDeleteIf I ever have to go down to one 'thing', they'll be it
