Home made barbacoa

The weather stayed dry and we all worked hard this morning - cutting and carrying small logs and branches from the pine woods. Then, when we got home, we spread some of the wood out on the terrace so that it could dry in the sun. Even Teddi and Tobi came upstairs to help supervise that part of the task.

After the evening church service, we could enjoy the fruit of our efforts. I built a roaring fire and, once it had settled into coals, we got out the parrilla (barbecue grill) and roasted spicy chicken wings in the fireplace. Our first home-style barbecue!
