    Will be near freezing mark tonight ... just brought in enough wood for tonight's fire. House at 69 now but will light it up when we hit 67. Pretty sure this is the last weekend for fires; can't ever remember burning this late in the spring.

    Stove is cruising along with a load of soft maple and cherry. I'm about done at this point, I'll load the stove this week as needed but after that I may just suck it up and use the propain. :loco: :crazy::bug:

    Yep, kind of cold for this time of year, I just hope it doesn't shoot up to 85 all of a sudden

    Loaded last night with ash and beech at 10:30, that held us until 12 today and I loaded some aspen and silver maple. Headed down to put about 3 smallish splits of something to hold us until tonight's load. Frost advisory, have some beech, hickory and locust on tap for the overnight.

    It ended up snowing all day Saturday with a cold wind. The snow wasn't enough to accumulate (around here) much more than an inch or so, but to the east there was more.

    The week will start out with three days in the 50's for highs.

    Wood stove was great at the cottage!

    We're already down in the 30s with frost tonight. Started a small oak fire a little bit ago. Fleece jammies going on too.

    The cold front came through yesterday and again today, with some pretty strong winds too.

    Sunny today after rain overnight. Highs of upper 40's only. I'm betting we'll hit 50's with the sun shining!
    Looks like 70's for the weekend-welcome back black gnats!
