    Burning three year old pine tonight. Took the chill out. Going down to 39° tonight. We will be in the twenties overnight for a few days coming.

    About 40 out right now, going down to 30 tonight. Just about to light up some mystery wood. Found three logs in a friends grandfathers basement last year, been there for at least 20 years. I took them because he used to own a marine salvage company and had tons of cool stuff he found underwater, usually pretty rare stuff. I thought maybe they were some sort of rare wood and was gonna make something from them one day. Well, a year later I got so sick of tripping over them in the garage I took the 346 to them. Bone dry and kind of punky in spots. Still No idea what kind of wood?:loco: :crazy:

    +7 C right now dropping to +4 C overnight! Or 46? dropping to 39 roughly. And rain. Burning kindling is all I need to keep the shack warm at the moment.

    Whatever it is it is driest wood I've ever burned. This is 1:30 seconds after lightning with one firestarter. image.jpg And not that anyone could tell what it is but here's the wood. Generic white wood, no bark. Not very dense.

    I'm looking forward to it. Might lower whatever is causing this extended allergy season. The sinuses have not been happy.

    Current 38°F with snow, going down too 28°F. It isn't sticking during the day too much, but it's been snowing daily for 3 days. Been waking up to anywhere from a dusting to 2". Another inch expected again tonight. It's weird, except for once, the radar hasn't shown any precipitation at all. On another note, I have a file created for the PE Alderlea T5. I should be getting a quote soon and then this will hopefully be installed within 6 weeks. I'm going with the black enamel. In the meantime, I'll be buying wood :(....... likely kiln dried from a co worker hopefully.

    The firebox size is 2.2 For this year, the woodstove is really a backup heater, since there is a pellet stove and oil forced air, but...... if we lose power, even though we have a genny..... another source of heat will be a wise choice.
