When the tents were up and the table set, it was time for Hubs to go and get some fire wood. normally, we all go as a family to help fill the trunk full of wood, but this trip was different as we had Smokey along with us.

Me, The baby and our middle boy stayed at the campsite with Smokey while hubs and our eldest went together to get wood. After it had been sorted, Hubs picked up the ax and I began moving the children and dog back into a safer spot to watch. Except, Hubs called the eldest over and put the ax in his hands!As you can see, he did not just hand him the ax and tell him to start whacking, and I will admit that i assumed hubs would be staying there, hands over the boys, the whole time.
Except, after showing the boy the proper stance and swing, he walked off.

I took this photo, and then had to stop, I had to watch him with my eyes, not through the view finder of my camera. I was terrified. I kept picturing him in my minds eye missing the log and hitting his shin!
But of course, he did his daddy proud, he took careful aim and slammed that ax down, cleanly splitting the log in two!
