    Hello all. Got an invite from mattjm1017.

    Thanks matt. :)

    Been heating exclusively with wood for 9 years. We have 3 wood burning devices. 2 older cast iron parlor-type stoves and a Baker FP insert. Try to always have 2 years in the shed but this year has been tough on the stash. I recently dipped into what should have been next years heat. But that's OK. Being an Arborist, I bring home wood just about every day. :D

    See y'all around the board.

    Joe, good to have you! I'm in central PA too....I used to work down your way and still come down there trout fishing from time to time (Mount Holly Springs). I'm also a "part time arborist"....always bringing wood home with me (to the dismay of my wife). I'm sure you'll be an asset to the site, glad to have you!

    Welcome UncleJoe. New members are always welcomed, plus you have some experience, that's a ++++ !!
    Now.....gotta ask..... those 2 cast iron parlor-types you're burning, are you thinking of going more efficient in the future??
    Just curious, thanks. JB

    Do you really think he could be that old Gary? Or me? I think we are in trouble for sure.
