    Just cool enough to get a fire going. 38 presently with a low of 32. Started with some buckthorn and cottonwood (no surprise there) but graduated to some punky parts of the oak I was splitting today. That is, I had a big ugly punky chunk set aside here for a couple years (found it in our woods). I kept it under shelter - thought I might try carving on it, then got tired of looking at it. Anyways, it’s dry enough to burn - unlike most of my oak.

    Looks like it’s almost time for a re-load. Meh - before bed.

    Was a really nice day here in PA. The commute home on the motor sickle was chilly. 1/2 of it showed 41 degrees. Add 60 mph wind chill :shiver:.
    Here at home I’m showing about 39 on the mercury and 71 on the stat. Kept the fire going by smoldering a few splits of RO throughout the day. Darkened my stove window :doh:. Back to a decent flue temp now.
    Guessers say a possible 68 Thurs and 66 Fri. :smoke: I’m not complaining!

    Sitting around 28. Haven't done any overnight burns yet, so in the mornings downstairs is a little chilly.
    Load of ash to start the day and before I head off to work. No deer stand for me this morning. :(.
