    I'm told the difference in snow between the White Mtn area and Southern NH is very drastic. I told my wife if we ever move from Tennessee that NH would be my first choice.

    It's already 50 and is going to be 68 today. We've been having beautiful days the past week, or so. Only been starting a fire for overnights lately.

    27 when I woke up. No sun today so the house is calling for heat in a couple zones. I warmed up the shop a little this morning too.

    More white oak uglies and a some ash in the boiler. Looks like a cool, damp, and cloudy weather pattern is setting in so I'll probably leave it lit from here on out.

    12 feels like 6. This will stiffen up the ground a bit!

    Awesome photo. Is that your phone camera or do you have a DSLR?

    Just my phone, and that is a screen shot because the original is too large to the forum.

    This mornings fire lasted until about 6pm. It was 71 in the house, I let it cool off some as I was overheated from working out in the yard all day. It's 33 degrees now going to 25 by morning. It will be toasty here shortly, going to do a full load tonight. Oak, Maple and some cedar fence posts I found the other day abandoned and scrounged on the side of the road. :banana:

    Have a warm evening!
