Glad i did it right there had been something living in th exhaust. Lots of little twigs. All cleaned out now. Whatever was left in the hopper is burning now.

    Always nice time to light fires at leisure rather than necessity. Enjoy it while you can.

    I don't know if you've ever played World of Warcraft, but rule #1 is: don't stand in the fire.

    Mines been on and off for the past week or so now. Been in the high 30s-high 40s pretty much every night. I actually just set it to turn on at 0530 automatically now so when we come down in the mornings it'll have already gotten the chill out. Pretty much turn it off as soon as we come down though.

    Still burning Okanagan Platinums I had leftover from last year. They've been great, if I can find another ton for <$210 or so I'll grab them to get me through this winter. Our pellet stove is really only supplemental, 1.5 tons or so is plenty for us for the winter.
