    House was at 66 so the furnace is burning once again. Probably the last time, this time.

    We only used about 1/8 of a tank this year, with the January we had, 18 to 20 days of negatives temps, that is pretty good.

    We did burn 60 bags of pellets, 13 face cord of firewood (still some of that left) and 5 face cord of shoulder season wood.

    Just one bug nailed me when I was cutting today but tonight when I took the dog for a walk the skeeters had their dinner.

    Beautiful day today. It was 28 degrees when I got up this morning. Warmed up to almost 50 degrees this afternoon. I lit a little Limber Pine fire in the gym 30 minutes before I got my swell on. The gym is a separate building on my property. It gets COLD in there.

    No fire here the past few days.
    Farmers are starting to work their fields.
    The Drift is slowly going away on our place.

    64 out right now, I shut the OWB down a while ago. Mowed the lawn a few times already.

    It rained the last few days, yesterday was sunny and in the 70s,. Got a lot of the lawn mowed, trimmed all the dead stuff out of the crab apple tree, helped the kid put new injectors in her truck. Then it was still in the late afternoon so I set fire to the burn pile and started throwing a bunch of the pine limbs on to burn, got a lot of them burnt, still a ton to clean up.
    Got to many irons in the fire, I think they are starting to melt before I can get to them all...:emb::picard::rofl: :lol:

    34 degrees here now. The temp was in the upper 20’s with a sloppy rain/snow mix all night last night. Supposed to be around 50 degrees today. Might get more snow in the next couple of days.

    We may even get into the 60’s over the weekend!

    Burning Heartland pellets in the Harman. Random shoulder season mixed chunks in the Oslo. 70 degrees in the house at the moment.

    Why?
    Just had a thunderstorm move through with .56" rain and 72f. Heading to 90 so could get just a little sticky out there today.

    It’s hard for me to like that! I’d melt!

    The mountains above me are getting pummeled right now. I-70 is shut down near Vail due to heavy snow.

    Sticky does not really describe it and hot! Then storms moved in. Seems most times when I've been in or through Omaha the have been some terrible storms and hot in summer. Then there was the time we stayed on 4th of July. We were sure war had begun!!!! Air stunk with gun powder and there was no darkness. I have no idea how much people spent on fireworks but I'd never seen so much and any that lasted as long. And we were in a residential area!

    Storms are just opportunities for more free firewood.:rofl: :lol:
    Fireworks were illegal in town up until a few years ago, but yes, they do love shooting them off at all hours. One of these years they are going to start my wood piles on fire.:headbang:
