    So for last nights load I had two chunks of hedge that I put in. Well this morning one piece was coaled up still on top of another coaled up piece of oak. When it fell in front of the dog house of the stove. I got a pretty nice light show... I had to wait a few minutes to let it slow down and kick it to the back.

    Nice light show from those little buggers!

    Dang, reminds me of back in my mischievous days when I was making homemade fireworks. Homemade Napalm mixed with gunpowder and allowed to dry into a solid. Looks just like that :)
