Cousin Gustav Cutting Firewood

As a proud member of the Landidyll (Country Life) Collection, Cousin Gustav is known throughout Cowboy Creek for one particular talent: he can light a fire with a single match. He claims the secret lies in choosing the perfect kindling — though Grandma insists it’s simply because he’s too frugal to buy a second box of matches from the store.

Precision is Gustav’s way of life. He chops neat piles of wood, each stack just so, and wanders down to the creek in search of the ideal willow stick to sharpen. When evening settles in, he builds a fire that crackles like laughter, and soon enough the whole family gathers around. Hotdogs roast on sticks, stories drift into the night air, and sparks rise to dance with the stars above.

Around here, Gustav isn’t just a cousin — he’s the keeper of campfire magic.
