    I've always liked "No Trespassing , Violators Shot, Survivors Shot Again" signs.

    How did you make out with the storm? Seems your area was hit the hardest with a lot of heavy wet sn*w and power outages.

    I ended up going out to my brother's in Greenville yesterday to do a food shopping run for him. Greenville got hammered. 33" of snow, sidewalks not cleared yet, 5-6 foot high banks on the sides of the streets, barely room for 2 cars to pass thru, parked cars make them 1 car wide. Had to wade thru thigh-high snow to get to his front door. He never lost power, his Xfinity internet occasionally went out.

    The area from just east of Keene up thru Henniker and Weare got the most snow, saw a NH Reddit post of someone in Peterborough who had 42". A few of the small towns out there had the whole town w/o power according to the Eversource outage page yesterday. As we haven't seen any of b's usual 3:30 am posts, I'm guessing her town got hammered, I think she's in Henniker.

    Yeah, that's why I was asking, really not surprised there is no response yet. Hopefully just no power, not that is any fun but worse things could be.

    They are good pellets, heat output a bit less than the Vermonts.

    As they are pine, do they funnel like Matra and Vermont?

    Yeah they do. But we have a hopper extension on our P43 so the bottom main hopper is usually full as I add when the extension get empty and no funneling issues in the extension. If I let the lower (main) hopper get low they do funnel.
    The have a slightly different smell than the Vermont, darker in color, a tad more ash and the heat output is just slightly less than the Vermont.

    That funneling does get old.
