    Beautiful !
    So from what I'm learning, your stove is a secondary air stove correct ?
    What make and model is it ?

    At the moment it's up to 2 below. It's supposed to cool off quite a bit this weekend.
    Got the fence built over half way around the stove today. And did a bunch of other stuff.
    It's really cool getting these projects accomplished that I have been wanting to get done for so long !!

    Well, it cooled off. Almost to 17 below at the moment at the house.
    An 8" round of Aspen , 20" long and a 3" dia round of black spruce nestled onto a good bed of coals.
    Truck is plugged into the EU 2200i Honda generator . Genny box is open 1/2" on the exuast end. Coffee is ready to be switched on . Dogs are walked. Time for me to hit the sack . Happy Thanksgiving everyone !

    :shiver::shiver::shiver: that's a little chilly.

    A sweltering 30 here compared to Rope temps. Some coals left over from last night, a few pieces of dry white oak and off we go.
    Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

    45 here and 72 in. Supposed to hover around that all day today with rain. No reloading until tonight, still have red coals from last night's load of sycamore. As soon as I have my coffee I will get the bird stuffed, bagged and in the oven.

    :vulture:Happy Thanksgiving everyone

    Correct and yes those secondary air tubes make for an interesting show inside the firebox when they’re firing off :thumbs: My stove is a Lopi Evergreen, 2015 model.

    Basswood and maple in the OWB.

    23 here. Windy and snowing.

    This is one of those days where the high has already been reached. The temps will continue dropping throughout the day.

    66 inside and the furnace is lit.

    Currently 33 in south central PA. 73 in and have the stove burning as slow as possible. The oven on for hours and all the stovetop cooking should keep us warm enough. Should be 7 here today for the feast.
    Happy Thanksgiving to all the hoarders out there. I’m thankful for the camaraderie and friendships I’ve gained from this forum. For all the knowledge shared. For the criticism when it was needed. :cheers:

    Warmed up to 14 below this morning when I got up. Think it's up to 10 under at the moment. Mostly Aspen in the stove . My wife is working today. So I m going to take a load of wood to a friend's place. We will be going to the community Thanksgiving feast this afternoon in Delta.
    Hope everyone has a great and safe time today.
