    We've had a bunch of rain in the last three days, so this morning I fired up the Fisher wood stove. 20160830_164545.jpg 20160830_164524.jpg

    You had the itch, why not scratch it! How did the new stove do as far as operation? I think WeldrDave and Coaly will be proud!

    so jelly. Got a pile of brush out back I need to light up, but it's too hot out to even think about it! Maybe in a few weeks. The Lopi won't get any action until at least November.

    It will be cool here soon enough. 61F outside now at 9 pm. But 77 inside from the cooking the MRS. did. (pot roast). We will get cool nights. Might even get a weird frost. But chances are will we go into Oct. before a real killing frost. Then it is time to light it up because it will take some days before the house will cool off enough to fire up the stove.

    Is 2400 Sq ft to small for a Grandpa in one corner and an XL in the other?
