The Fire That Wasn't

This looks cozy but it was extremely frustrating. The firewood I picked up at a nearby shop looked dry. It felt dry. But it would not catch fire. Two nights in a row a got a good blaze going, but once the kindling was gone, the fire petered out. On the second night I had a huge amount of kindling, enough for twenty minutes of roaring fire, but the logs would only smolder.
