    House went down to 60°F last night. A fire wasn't absolutely necessary, but the itch was getting to bad not to scratch. With temps in the low 40's tonight, I might build another small one. :)

    o_O It got down to 67 in here last night but we toughed it out. Another degree or two and I woulda caved. We could put on a sweater, but we don't have any for the dogs. :)

    Currently 51°F outside, but the house warmed by the sun today holding steady at 72°F inside. Lows tonight in the upper 30's

    I expect to wake up a tad bit chilly tomorrow morning. Might build another small fire......

    House was 64 this morning so the boss kicked me out of bed early and said she wanted a fire. So I did as she says, happy wife=happy life!

    Here's a hint.....you're doin' it wrong.
    Thought for sure all the firewood folks on here know how to make heat using more than one method.
    Jeesh.:rofl: :lol:
