    Nice now, 34°, a day to prepare for snow. I'm burning mystery wood splits from the dump, don't want to save them for another year. I brought all of it into the basement. NH mountain man, you must be looking forward to a good snow?

    Snowing a bit now but we only got enough to cover the ground a bit. Not expecting much more. Good.

    However, this week is scheduled to be a great week for making maple syrup. Freezing nights are needed because of the rush we had earlier. However, it probably won't run much as highs expected only in the 30's. But it will run some. Most were worried that the season would be really short but this will help that.

    Another day with a bitter cold wind. (breeze, if you're from Wyoming!)
    No sunshine.

    Do you do this yourself? If so and you are ok with sharing some pics it would be neat to see them.

    Thats still pretty chilly and in celsius is -25. We had a sun/cloud mix with highs of -2c/28f and now its -6c/21f. I dont mind if winter starts giving me milder temps although we can still get some cold temps. I just loaded the stove with larch for the evening and settling in to watch a bit of netflix.

    33ºF out now, supposed to get up to 40ºF and start raining sometime before noon. NWS has flood warnings but that is likely partially due to all the rain a couple days ago. Electric company came to fix the power and instead condemned the mast and weatherhead and disconnected it as a hazard. What one guy said they would fix, now they're not. I could have hired an electrician last Saturday or at least Monday. Bastids.
    Burning 4 or 5 year old white oak and got into some from the bottom of the stack that just doesn't want to burn. Three or four splits on one side of the stove are just sitting there smoldering. Always something. Only one of them seemed a little heavy.
