    It’s not good for someone that has sinus problems.

    I’d be a hermit if I had to deal with your weather.

    Yes it does. It's our sole heat source. It can go thru the wood fairly fast so it needs tending often when it gets like it is currently. Especially considering the species of woods we have here. It would be interesting to see how long it would last at 40-50 below with seasoned red oak or something similar in it.

    It sure does, my boys enjoy the sparks and popping. My stacks are empty of it at the moment. Always looking for some.

    Warm night here at 30 degrees. Looks like we’re finally getting a break for the next couple days with daytime highs around 40. Got some apple, beech and black birch in the stove this evening.

    42/75 have not put anything in the stove since morning. I'll load some ash and maple about 9:30. Going back to work tomorrow after I get my stiches out but by the looks of the weather may be staying in on Thur.
