Colder here. What's your temp? What ya burnin?

How much more wood does the boiler use with the wind?

 

tropical heat wave here in kentucky 13* degrees heading to 41 today will be the first time above freezing in two weeks and im glad.
currently burning green and seasoned poplar in the stove its 77 in here.
i working on some coffee mixed with a few shots of early times whiskey i got a terrible chest cold right now.

 

Hope you feel better Jake. Dallas is @ -7.8* I am @ -15. On the midnight shift holding down the hatches.

 

if you was closer i would pass the whiskey and give dallas this chest cold

 

If you start now, I will be off duty by the time you get here. I have a nice bottle of "46" Makers Mark hanging out waiting.

 

does the expensive stuff work the same as the cheap?

 

Same/same

 

46 is smooth, I don't have much time to get to know it. I have been working on that bottle since '15. Another decade it will be real smooth. I retire in '28 wont surprise me if I still have that same bottle. Have a bottle of scotch from my wedding from '01.

 

mix it with this and you got something.

 

Will have to check that out later. No you tube at work.

 

your work sounds depressing.

 

Feel better man. Chicken noodle soup, NyQuil at night and DayQuil during the day seems to help me out.

 

Same old Same old but wind outta the South. Plus temps starting tomorrow.

 

No its good.

 

While I am looking forward to retire, I am work happy. Been good to me, benefits, pay check, retirement, pension. Limited internet, not a issue.

 

Should have looked at your sig line. How old is your Oakleaf? how do you like it? At one point I looked at the Mark III I like the shaker grate and ash pan.

 

Same here, like my non EPA Blasé King's. At some point they will need to be replaced. Hitzer's seem to be good stoves as well.

 

Waking up to -9°F. Coldest morning in many years. Had to leave the furnace on all night so we didn’t burst any pipes. It’s looking much better for next week.
