    It consumed a little less than half the stove. It was mostly Walnut, with three pieces of hedge. The walnut is my fire starter, it get the hedge rolling… then the hedge coals maintain the heat…

    It’s a hair above freezing at 33 this morning. Another mixed load of silver maple and ash, with a couple barkless elm skinnies thrown in for good measure.

    I’m grateful to be on the southern end of this system, but I’ll still need to burn wood for the next few nights.

    It got up in the mid 30s today but the breeze blew 15 to 20 all day . Blew all day yesterday also.
    We did not get much snow receding today.
    Very sunny tho. Which is nice !
    Fire killed spruce in the stove.
    I've never seen this much snow hang around for this long.

    43° and raining here and upper 40s for later on. I'm happy it's not the snow that was predicted for some not too far north of me. Elm, silver maple and ash again this morning. I grudgingly brought in more wood last night, as temperatures warrant more burning until early May. :headbang: At least the lettuce I planted in the raised garden bed will thrive in this weather.

    Woke to 36/71. Loaded the firebox with red and chestnut oaks so I don't come home to a cold house. Supposed to top out at 50 today, then 80 by Sunday. This is yo-yo weather!
