    30/73 cherry and ash, 32 for a high tomorrow and then the bottom drops out by night down to single digits. I have a little wood, shouldn't have to burn the kitchen chairs just yet.

    Snowing and winds are gaining strength. All that's left is for the temps to fall.

    Let the stove go out. Had been burning continuously for a couple weeks. Cleaned the cat and scoop. Even cleaned the viewing glass, only buildup was wood ash. Getting the stove back up and running in a piece of cherry and some ash. Feels good to have a clear view of the fire.

    21 but 7 with the windchill. 75 with cherry, elm, and spruce. Picked up a container of Rutland creosote remover to try and see if it makes any difference in build up. I figure it can't hurt.

    Temp has been falling all day. The temp is not bad at 19 but that wind is really raw.

    I've said it before, the cold is one thing, but the wind is something else. Stay warm!

    I'm in a cold place in the mildest winter I've seen since here 10 years-- but YIKES the wind cuts through us here too regardless of the temperature. Wind chill is no joke. Also humidity, I assume AZ is pretty dry as is where I live, but still! I've never been colder than walking across a street in Cali in November with high humidity and fog and stiff breeze. BRRRRR!
