    Northern Florida, I'm not sure it has ever gotten into the the teens and low 20s in South Florida. At around 50 down south the folks are dressed like January in Canada. Lol

    I know once you get up to that Georgia border then it can cool down pretty good during the winter, but I was not to far off.

    No only about 550 600 miles. We have a Cabin in Blue Ridge Georgia we usually visit there when it is really hot here. It's cold up there but really steep roads.

    A few of our friends there have had to park it for awhile, impossible to drive. We run for flat land in Florida in the winter time. We like the cold but too scared of the slick mountain roads.

    These guys are monkeys man, but they did have toe boards and foam pads for the tare off.
    Pic was the shingle delivery guy, roof boards do offer some traction.
    I know it is steep I have the roof rash scars to prove it, :hair:but I didn't fall off:D

    30° and a foot or better of coals in the box, so I added a few sticks to keep it busy until daylight. I got called away yesterday so it didn't get cleaned out.

    Right where I want to be.
    About 28 this am, and a good load of coals. Did the coal push and pull, then loaded a single e/w split to burn 'em down some. Was 72 IAT and it's 73 now.
    Going up to 38 today with a little "maybe" sun.
    Still working through some Red Maple. I've only used Oak mixed sparingly so far, since it's not been super cold for the most part.
