January 6 - The Campfire Trail - Fireside Comfort Zone

January 6, 2025

Day 1,193 of the Adventure


There's nothing quite like waking up in the middle of a cold night when the fire has burned down too far to keep the cabin warm. It means crawling out of a warm bed, venturing outside to the wood box in bare feet and not much else. (Last night that was 14 degrees) Grabbing a chunk or two of firewood, retreating back inside the cabin and stoking the fire up. Likewise, there's nothing quite like slowly waking up in the pre-dawn morning darkness to a woodstove that's emitting enough heat to make crawling out of a warm bed a comforting and welcome experience. (This morning, that was 74 degrees) 

This time of year, comfort is largely predicated by the condition of the fire in the woodstove and that's okay. Many nights I will spend at least a small amount of time sitting in the darkness in front of it. Absorbing its warmth as the glow of dying embers builds back up into a flame. Once nursed back to life, I can make the few short steps back to the bed and it's warmth. It's all part of the cabin life during the cold grip of January.

Adventure Quote: “Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand and for a talk beside the fire: it is the time for home.”
