Removing grass and searching firewood after

As I mentioned in my previous post that I will have more time now. I will be posting every day like before, I hope so. But my time for now while waiting for my papers will be in the land. Yes, I'll be working on the land with my brother. Sometimes I will not be there. I will not spend my life just being there. Of course, being in the sea is nice especially in fishing. Also, whenever my friends will be inviting me to have fun. It's hard to refuse an offer if it's about happiness.

This day earlier, I went to the mountain. It's not that far but 1 hour of walking from home to reach there. Almost a week that rain didn't leave. Just this day the sun showed up with a smile. That's why I decided to go to the mountain. To get firewood and at the same time to remove small grasses surrounded the corn. It's been 3 weeks since we planted it. Some grow bigger but some don't. It's expected because of the rocky types of land. Even so, there's no need to worry about it. Just a small portion of the area that has small plants of corn.

You can see in the photo how greeny the land because of the plant. It's clean because the grasses didn't grow just yet. It will just need a bit of time before it will grow. But we're not planning to wait for it. We will visit the area every day if possible and remove the small grasses we will find. It's better that way rather than waiting for it. It will be tiring when you will see a lot of grass.

After removing grasses because I was tired. I saw a man collecting wood. Then I started searching for firewood to bring home. We have a gas stove like gasul gas. Do you know that thing? But I prefer the firewood. I don't know, it's just that's what I like in terms of cooking food and boiling rice. Most people said that the cooked food from firewood is different from gases. I thought as well because of its smell. It smells good and it's tasty. This is my own opinion. I don't know what other people think of it.

After searching firewood I tied it. It's easier to be this way if you only have a small type of firewood. Of course, I only picked the dried wood. It's not that heavy but still itchy on my shoulder. I'm not used to it now so maybe that's what it is. Also, the road was inclined that I needed more force to stop my feet from sliding. The land made from clay was wet because of non-stop rain. If you will not be careful, you might be injured. It's not easy but it's fun. It's just that as of now I am feeling my body is aching.

It's a good exercise though to have sweat and do some working. Not only that there will be something to wait for in time. Soon as this plant grows bigger it will be worth it for sure.

I have to agree with you about cooking things over a wood fire - it is a whole different experience!
