    OWB keeping both house and domestic water heated. Threw in two 1/2 chunks this morning to keep the temps up. Mid 20's this morning with some fresh snow. Easy to move this stuff as it was not heavy with moisture at all.

    About 50f here today, burning all sorts of chunks and uglies; some cherry, apple, cypress and sycamore. Lovely.

    -23c/-9f under clear skies this morning. I was going to get some firewood today for next year but figured Id wait until next weekend when it will be a bit warmer. Smoking a roast in the Kamado Joe today! Spruce and Pine is my morning reload.

    First fireplace fire of the season. 43 out and drizzly and the kids were begging for a fire. Cleaned the flue today and threw on some maple, ash and cherry. Not cold enough to fire up the Kumma yet.

    I’m about 140 miles East of you and I’m really hoping the warm up is coming too. Mid to end of the week is actually looking good.

    The west has a nasty (for October) cold snap going on. It's 25F and they say headed for 9F in the morning. Burning Lodgepole pine and western juniper.

    If you don’t mind me asking, how much is the total package: insert/installation?

    This was yesterday AM.

    Supposed to be a little colder this morning. The horses are blanketed, and the dogs are inside.

    We just moved. New place has an older insert, and based on our wood consumption so far, I think I'm going to miss our little Kuma CAT stove. Man, that thing just nibbled wood and made heat.
    This one takes 4-5 splits of fir a night to keep the house comfy.
