Burning well seasoned hickory, oak and locus. Feels good on a vacation day at home with the wife May make some home made heat in a little bit. Life is good Whats going on with my FHC buddys?
Looking forward to a three day weekend myself, four days to go! Been having a blast cooking on the Drolet, refilling the humidifier kettle, and other wood tasks-- except hauling it, thats less fun. Going to try to squeeze a little more wood into the basement this weekend and then call it good for the year.
Good job adams How much you have in your basement? 4 Lloads in mine and its bone dry. Im burning out of my small shed now and Im waiting until Jan 1 to start burning whats in my basment and then I will fill the building up again and be done for the year
18 here - luckily we missed most of the "Lake Effect" snow that others in my area saw - couple guys at work got 2' overnight! I work in an old warehouse that was converted to an office building - barely 60 degrees in here... Thinking I may head home at lunchtime and work from my nice warm wood-heated home office!
Shawn, that must be nasty if you are sitting on the job with that temperature. Wear your hunting clothes?! We got down to 9. Had the stove cooking pretty good for a while at 670 degrees. Overnight the house temperature dropped to 70 which is lower than we usually let it go. However, no problem getting it back up even with the cold wind outdoors.
16 degrees here been loading the furnace up with white ash. Keeps my wife warm all day while I'm gone at work!
24° here with a windchill down in the lower teens. House is still cooking at 72°. Stayed that way overnight and still had good hot coals when I got home almost 12 hours later.
Burning uglys in the fire pit,cotton wood in the garage,ash in the house,and I am sitting outside drinking my first beer of the day. Life is good today.
8 here this morning, 72 in the house when we got up at 7pm. , an hour later than usual, school is on a 1 hour delay after being closed due to 6" of snow yesterday. Tossed on a split of hackberry and two oak splits on a great bet of coals and just kicked back doing this when I think about how much propane prices are going to go up because winter came over a month early and with a vengeance!
28..with a wind chill of 16...just put another load in...toasty inside..im gettn ready to take a nap..my day begins at 11pm..its gonna be a chilly one..
20 deg as of now with plenty of wind, my stove thinks its January I feel for you guys heading out to work tonight, we shut down early today in the boat business cause couldn't get much of anything done.
29 here but the wind is whipping through these parts today. It fells a lot colder. Got both the Englander 30 and the Breckwell P22 going. Oak, cherry and ash on the 30 and Stove Chow's on the P22. Generator full of gas and about 10 gallons on the shed in case we loose power due to high winds.
