    I've been MIA from here for this season...
    got tied up in life. basically lived with my gf for a bit and left my roommate to tend to feeding the stove. I showed up once a week to clean it and swap some clothes.
    back at the house now, she's here now too. have about 10 bags left and then i'm done for the season.
    basically left the stove on low all year. never turned it up, just ideled to support some warm air flow and let the fossil pig do the rest.

    Got a pre-buy email today... 309-339 for some of these on pre-buy. ugh. it's not looking to be a good year. i won't buy over 300 and oil at 2.19. makes no sense.

    Anyway, hi. :)

    Yes, the frozen stream is breath taking.

    Slow low burn tonight. 50's tomorrow and some rain. The weekend is another chiller almost like last weekend.

    I'm ahead nearly a cord so I shouldn't complain.

    I took it easy today because when I went out to do some work this morning it was raining. To heck with that. Went and spent a good part of the day with my parents. Thanks for the rain!

    Woke up to an inch of snow with more coming down. Snowed quite heavily all morning and then the sun came out and now at 5:00 PM, there is hardly snow to be seen. Going down island tomorrow so I hope it stays dry for the day. It has been quite a week or so of snow in the morning, sun in the afternoon.

    Spend as much time with them as you can, brother! Both mine (and hers) are gone and I miss them dearly.

    My parents lost a monster maple tree in the wind last night. Uprooted it from what I understand...Right across the driveway.

    Windy here all day and again tomorrow. Starting to feel like Wyoming around here.
