    Took a while I started melting it just before the holidays and took now to finish it up. Was tough this year, didn’t want to go quietly into the night.

    We've been enjoying fires in the outdoor WFO fireplace quite often lately. I'll have to jump on my Pizza Oven thread and update it soon.

    We are nearing the finishing stretch of that project.
