    Getting to zero. Earlier today I cut up a bed load of branches and stuffed the boiler. Learning they made a great bed of coals about a foot deep. Filled with splits during halftime of the game. I can sleep in tomorrow.

    I was mistaken on getting through a short time on the frigid stuff. Have to get through until Wednesday before it returns to the twenties, where it will be da****ed cold, rather than frigid.

    hard work during css time. We are toasty warm for free with this blessing of firewood. Btw, blessing come dressed in coveralls and smell a bit like spilled chain bar oil.

    8* " real feel -1." BL loaded for the night. Probably going to get up during the night to reload. Very still and quiet when I took the dogs out at 10 PM. Snowed yesterday may have to toss some ash at top of driveway for the ice.

    According to my phone my phone it’s 39 degrees colder here than where Rope lives and 36 degrees colder than at Cold Trigger Finger home. -14F at 9:30 here

    have a mixture of honey locust, ash, elm and silver maple by the stove.

    23 & 74 right now. This morning was 11 & 66 when I left. For a few more days oak will be the order of the day, then we’ll get back to normal. What I see outside right now says, it’s gonna be cold in the morning. It has been dry with the cold so that has been a nice change.

    Burrow in like ticks and keep warm Hoarders.
