    Still recovering from a knee replacement 5 1/2 weeks ago along with a setback when one of my Westies body slammed my new knee... I don't have my St Croix cleaned and back in the house nor do I have the shop stove cleaned. But I hope to have some of that done this weekend.

    Gotta get a new board for my St Croix this year, too. Pricey!

    Later....

    welcome back Krooser. Hope the knee is dandy in no time.

    This be my 17th season. Bought the ol quad in October of 1999... Pretty easy to remember as my son was born in September of 99............ Heated with wood for 5 seasons before that. Hard to beat wood heat. ;)

    I'm still in my infancy with pellet heating - this will be my 3rd full winter (plus 1/2 a winter). Did heat with wood (and oil) at my previous place for about 10 years though.

    I saw my first pellet stove at the Topsfield Fair probably 25-30 years ago? My ex was with me and as I was admiring this thing she was saying"c'mon, lets go that is stupid".:picard:

    May be one of the reasons she the "ex" :p

    That's where I bought my Invincible. Home and Hearth from Hampton Falls NH was there for years. They are still in business. I bought my P61A from them in 2010. Both stoves are still running.

    Ive bee to Home and Hearth many times. Jim is a great guy to deal with and is the person who changed my mind on a pellet grill convincing that a Kamado (BGE) was the way to go. He sells both and usually has an egg going on weekends for samples. :grizz:

    I have sent several people to him for stoves and kind of regret not buying my P68 from him.

    The entire Fallon family has been great to work with over the years. When I bought my P61A, Jim actually talked me into the PC45. I had it for 3 weeks and didn't like it. Called him up and he said bring it back and I could swap for the P61A. Most places probably wouldn't do that. I have personally referred a dozen friends and coworkers there and they all ended up buying a Harman from them.

    I like going by there with someone on a cold fall or winter day when they have the stoves (some Quads some Harman) going outside in the trailer. Great way to see how they operate in the cold :)
