    26 and spitting rain/sleet. Doesn't look like it's going to last long though.

    More square wood in the boiler.

    18/68, oak. Shoveled the fireplace out this morning. Might try to split some wood today. The sun melted some snow yesterday but I doubt the pile of rounds is uncovered. Maybe I’ll buck the last half load of logs instead.

    Strange readings this morning. 20 miles north reports 1 degree while 20 miles south is 12.

    Yesterday was forecast to get above freezing. We reached 32 briefly before the clouds started breaking up and the wind picked up and the temperature began falling again. Not much there but maybe a promise that more is coming next week. It made me think of the old saw about the thaw.

    We thought we thaw a thaw but think the thaw went through, without thoroughly thawing anything in need of thermal therapy. So we thrash through the thick, thoughtless Arctic thrust and thread through and thrive in it’s thrill and hope that we thee a thaw thoon. So we thrash through the thick thoughtless Arctic thrust, and thread through and thrive in its thrill. And hope that we thee a thaw thoon.

    Thanks.

    Put 2 splits on the fire when I let the dog out about 4;30a, wife put more on about 9. We’re feeding it more than I can ever remember. 72 inside and zero motivation to go outside. :shiver:

    Stay warm hoarders!
