Mud season is already here... he he he... at least along the cleared path through the snow to our wood stacks. Very squishy.... ew.
Around 8 inches for me... and about an inch of sleet on top. Got the snow shoveled off the driveway on Sunday just in time for the sleet to...
Yeah, the Rural King nearest me in Chambersburg, PA still had some until just after New Years at least. I've been getting one Cam2 gallon at the...
I have two metal totes for shorts and chunklies. Recently upgraded to totes from a very poorly designed and built pair of "ugly boxes." I...
I'm going with this response. I cannot figure out how steam would make it though the sealed door of my stove insert and into the house. Sure,...
The wind last night convinced us to have our first fire of the season. We were at a nice toasty 71F when we went to bed. Small fire, so we lost...
Thought I'd post this up for comment from you all. I have an Enviro 1700 Insert. We've used it for 10+ years and it's time to replace the fire...
I'm honored to be in the same county as the FWH sign, even though I have not seen it in person!
We're done. Cleaned up the stove, put away the tools, returned wood to the stacks. Now, since we've done this, it's guaranteed that we'll end up...
64F in the house this morning. Nice warm day on tap today so not much heat is needed for the house. Lit off a small fire of chunklies before...
Pile on time... also 63F inside with low 40s this morning when I left for work. No fire in this season as of 8:00 AM, but I don't know what may...
Highs in the 80s and long range high temps typically at least in the 70s mean the burning season is over for us. We've cleaned up the stove and...
We have both complaints around my area of the world. My favorite complaint was a city woman who moved to a property next to a horse pasture, then...
Should probably wear a brace like that. Although my back pain more commonly comes on from doing something ridiculously low impact... like fishing...
64F in the house this morning when I left for work. I suspect a fire was made after I left. If so, that would be our first fire in several days....
66F in the house this morning. Overnight low in the high 20s. We've switched from oak to other wood like maple and ash as we've had and will...
Been burning oak. Had a nice one last night that left the house at a comfy 72F when I left for work this morning. 29F overnight low temp....
Was 69F in the house when I got up. Nice full overnight burn of maple and mulberry. Was something like 25F overnight last night. Still saving...
Yeah... I guess I gotta get ready. Which means I need to bring a wheelbarrow load of wood from the backyard to the rack in the garage. That...
We cut 17 to 18 inches for our stove, and go north-south with full loads. We'll do combo north-south and east-west with half loads, but that's as...
