    40 on my back porch. Ash heating up the boiler. Looks like we could have a mix of sun, clouds, rain today.

    Caved in and lit off the OWB yesterday evening. Haven't looked outside yet this morning, but we are supposed to have snow from last night and throughout the day today. If we get it, it won't last as it will be warming into the low 50's for a couple days

    Upper 30's overnight, house this morning got down to 63, so I decided on feeding the stove a fiber breakfast of poplar, hard maple, with a hint of hickory!

    Yup, brings back memories of my childhood wake ups in the mornings. The floor was so cold that you hated to put your bare feet onto it getting out of bed. damm you, linoleum.

    Stopped by my bro's yesterday and let him know that I had fired up the OWB. He turned around, gazed into the cloudless sunny warm sky and replied "thank you".
    Highs of low 40's on thu with a bit of snow for fri and then highs back into the low 40's.

    maybe I'll let the fire go out........
