    17 out/ 67 in when I rolled out a couple hours ago.

    May get dumped on coming up over the next couple of days. Nothing like what is being guessed for the Buffalo area but will have to plow at least once before it is over. (then plow again)

    Good luck to the members from the Buffalo area and hope that the forecast is not accurate.

    First fire of the burning season last night as the forecast has the lows in upper 20's, low 30's for the next week or so. Nothing like heat from a stove, instantly took the chill out of the house. It truly makes all that hard work scrounging and processing wood well well worth it. Threw in some oak uglies mixed with a bunch of scraps I have.

    I have cut American Hornbeam (Musclewood, AKA blue beech) but not Hop Hornbeam (Ironwood) Both are supposed to be good firewood.
