    -6 here. Been snowing most of the day. It’s what my dad always calls “freeze your snot cold” :rofl: :lol:

    But in the grand scheme of things, -6 is not much colder than a typical night here.
    Still not Rope cold though!



    The Oslo is cranking on some big, ugly chunks of Ash.

    That’s a chunk of ash only a hoarder could love:emb: 283B909B-FC96-40A9-BE37-07B1085976C6.jpeg

    Lol, freeze your snot cold. I'll use that one too, thank you!

    It's -6° out, wind chill -26°, headed down to -9° supposedly.

    73° in the stove room. Burning ash, ironwood and apple at the moment.

    Probably some combination of that in a bit when I rechooch, but certainly with a big split of honey locust. There's a couple of those setting right on the hearth, just waiting.

    2 and 66 this morning... Just reloaded with some elm... will get it back up to temperature here shortly.... But the good news is 2 should be the high for the day... Its looking to go down from here... Forecasted to drop down to -2 or -3 by this evening.... I believe this will set a new record High low of the day... I think the old record was 4 degrees in 1936 ....

    You need more trees out there. And more hills. And less wind. At least, less sustained wind! That'll fix ya right up
