    3* and enough wind to make it feel well below 0.

    There was still quite a bit of wood left in the boiler this morning. I put a little more ash on there.

    50's next week.

    Got home to an almost out fire, so it’s 65 inside. Darn HHO kicked on for one round before I realized it. Ash pan door is open for 2 splits of BL. Maintaining 600 flue temp. :coffee:

    I plowed my driveway after work. Was still 71+ in here then. We got probably 10-12" of some real light fluffy stuff last night and it's been off n on all day. Got some oak, cherry, and white ash warming the stove now. She's 350° and climbing rapidly.

    -15 this morning, new record, and -12 predicted tomorrow, could be a record, and then the big warm up starts. Thank goodness as I picked up another cold plus I'm hoping that is what is causing my knee pain.

    Just returned from filling it up. Going to hit 30 tomorrow, then a gradual rise int9 th3 forties next week. March is usually nasty, so no sense in thinking * this is over.

    Gonna have highs in the 30's here beginning Sunday.

    I'll be able to give the vehicles a "sponge bath" and get all that dang salt dust off of them!
