    I've got a 2 week motorcycle trip from here to the west coast and up through Washington etc. And back home! Please guys. Let me complete that without frost on my seat and tent in the AM:eek: Just saying. Brrrrr….
    Seems that summer has whizzed by in overdrive as busy as things have been. Don't get me wrong. We've had some recent "meetings" with our fellow wood heat friends. Everyone is tired of the heat and ready to light up!

    Our resident spider has taken up its spot on the front porch. Saw it about 10 days ago...

    I’m ready for sure. It’s been a hot summer in the northeast and I’m looking forward to the cool days and colorful leaves.

    Summer was late getting here and has been milder than normal (so far), but yes, I'm ready. Three year plan has somehow expanded into four, even though my softwoods will dry in a year. You just never know when something might keep you from cutting. It's now a battle to preserve it.

    We're ready Sav, the cold front moved through dropping the temp to 67 which feels great.

    I sure hope that last week of September is not super hot. I used to think mid September was home free from heat but not anymore. All the way through September the last few years has been terribly hot. Like pushing 100, even 100. I hate our summers!

    It's that time of year when closing windows at night is quite the norm. I love it!

    Had 58 here this morning with the fan blowing in, felt great! I'm way ready for fall. Last couple days have been decent though, much lower humidity, I'll take it for now.
