    Yeah, did one last night and this morning.
    Going down to 32 tonight, so there'll be yet another fire. I'm gonna' run out of firewood if this keeps up.:rofl: :lol:
    Emma has things under full control, so no worries at your house.
    Let's just call this Juneuary and be done with it.:thumbs:

    No fire for the last month. We would have had one if we were back down stairs, but up on the second floor, it just hasn't been cool. I think the wife runs the furnace from time to time. It is silent so I can't hear it kicking on.

    You beat me to it by about half an hour, Loon. I left two windows open today, and didn't close them early enough to keep the house comfortable. It got to 68 in here and I felt cold, so instead of putting a sweatshirt on I lit a fire. I have lots of twigs and stuff to burn just from cleaning so I am rather pleased that it is cold enough to justify a fire. And with a few nights predicted in the forties, I don't need to worry about the house getting too hot.

    It's been a crazy Spring...challenging for the vegetable gardening.

    Papadave, we haven't hit 32 for about a week, and I hope we don't again. Those temperatures must be making toast of the fruit crops. I had damage to my apples last week. But the crabapples seem fine.

    We finally had rain, which we desperately needed/ Despite the severe drought, we have tons of mosquitoes...and many dragonflies, thankfully.

    Had to close all the windows and had a small fire with some ash last night, burning some chunky monkeys right now.
    When the north wind blows, I say let there be fire :fire:

    Yep, it's almost like the Jetsons.
    We can not only listen, we can also see 'em......anytime we want, instead of waiting for a radio dj to play the song.

    I can bring home the bacon, fry it up in a pan, bring home the firewood and fire it up in the stove, make the pies and watch those guys, chowing down on my big surprise:D
