This is an old one, but a good one. I just watched it a few times and still can't believe how close it was and how lucky she is. Don't do this,...
Holy heatwave Batman! We are suppose to see 20* today before the temps plummet back south of zero. Two mulberry splits and 3 ash splits on the...
This is ultimately what I ended up doing, it's just difficult when temps are as low as they have been. The house drops several degrees while...
That's a good combo of wood and a lot of the same stuff I cut out of fence rows. That hackberry looked kind of small to me at first until I saw...
18*F and it's actually going to get warmer tonight before it starts to slide back down. Stove top temps are 270-300* and nothing but coals right...
Ash and mulberry are cruising right now. House temps are 69-73*F. Outside it is 9*F. This is a good time to enjoy a beer and sit by the stove.[ATTACH]
I am realizing the benefits of pine during these negative degree days. I usually burn it in the fire pit or shoulder season, but wish I had saved...
Hey greendohn, I see we are neighbors. I'm in Shelbyville.
We are at a big fat 0* here in central Indiana. My wife kept the stove going while I was on duty and I cam home to about 3" of coals on the...
Yes, it is always nice to enjoy the fruits of your labor. Especially when that labor is firewood and the temps are so low.
I woke up at 0530 to get ready for work to a stove full of coals. I loaded it down last night with big splits of red oak and mulberry. House temps...
That's a great looking older stove. I never had one but plenty of friends did and they can throw the heat.
18* outside with a dusting of snow. Ash started the morning, now it's a load of all cherry. We will have the neighborhood smelling good on...
My Dad had an old Ford my brother and I would drive to the wood pile and load every so often. I was probably 10 and he 14 years old. We backed the...
Temps in the mid 30's but falling all day. Ash and cherry hearing the house now. Mulberry had the overnight duty.
28* this morning. House was 68 and heat pump running when I got home from work. Started some hackberry and cherry splits. This is a good combo....
We got close to 60* today. I let the stove go out and the heat pump maintained 70* indoor temps. Stove is up and running again on hackberry and...
Warmer here in central Indiana. Hackberry and cherry easily fired off on last nights mulberry coals.
I drove down to the old hog barns and scrounged 19 sheets of corrugated metal. This stuff was all bent up and stuffed in the woods many years ago....
Even more than black walnut? I've been burning both in my smoke dragon. Walnut has been getting most of the blame for the ashes. They are both...
