    A bit warmer here today than it has been. Overnight low was only down to 33ºF. Predicted high today of 51. Not a bad day for the middle of November. It is still riding weather for me.

    I finally got around to putting the new door gasket on and cleaning out the stove. I am burning Red Maple for the first fire of the year.

    40, cloudy with 20 mph winds. Burning 3 white oak and 1 silver maple splits on nice bed of coals. Turned down the air to get the boring black screen; was pleasantly surprised when the light show started about 45 minutes later. A few pictures. A bit confused about how everyone with a Fireview reads their air setting. Most say .75 is a good setting, but I'm not sure what angle that is from or if it is top of handle, bottom of handle ... I must be the only one who wasn't told the secret. :)

    Burning poplar. Never hit 50 deg todag, but the winds sure did. Feels like upper 30's tonights low around 30, will keep pushing the poplar.

    29 degrees this morning when I got up at my farm here in WV according to porch thermometer. The house was toasty warm, loaded with Oak and Locust last night, and the Buck was still pumping out the heat this morning, just loaded her back up with a little Oak and Cherry! :yes:
