    Got my last W2 today so did my taxes. They are very easy to do; tell them how much I made, tell them that yep, I did send them nearly 20% of it as Federal taxes, and they said "good girl, thank you so much" [I made up the part where they thanked me].

    Last weekend I picked up a trim piece that will go in the bathroom. it was in raw wood state and I cut it a little longer than I needed and took the scrap piece to try out some coloring schemes before I work on the piece that will be installed. All is done with markers and stain.

    First pic is in panorama mode in which you can see how level I could keep the phone (it makes the wood look grossly warped but it isn't). The second pic is of the unfinished wood I started with. Then there are closer pics so you can see the detail better from left to right.

    Is there 2 bags of Maine Choice in the middle of your stash? Good luck with those.

    I bought a few bags myself and the burned well in my Quad....albeit, they seemed to have a higher ash volume than others. I'm assuming these are what's in the Geneva bags since these are a straight hardwood now.

    I will admit it's been years since I've tried any but my experiences with them weren't good and I just can't bring myself to try them again.

    I don't think Will burned any yet but I'm interested to see what he thinks. These are most likely leftovers from last season. Lowe's got random pellets in this past week that they had last season. Inferno Gold's, Maine's Choice, Big Heat and AWFWP. Three pallets of one, two of the other....

    Train room and den and pellet storage. Now you have to make sure they are really going to stay gone.

    Slow, like molasses going up a cold hill. She keeps saying she is going to the spa, but then doesn't. Needs to get moving if she wants to get better. We sat a date for Monday for her to go. If she does the pool and hot tub, she'll get out and feel better.
