    Watched a flock of geese fly in and take a break. I was surprised to see them. Figured they'd have wised up and been further south by now.

    So far so good the house is warm and my Honey is happy :) Only b itch I have is that they don't seem to slide down from the corners in the hopper. Come home from work and stove is out with about a coffee can worth of pellets hung up in each corner. Every other brand I've burned maybe have a coffee cup in the corners.

    Will; I taped the seams with foil tape and hit the hopper with dry graphite spray 3-4 years ago and have not had any hangups since. I thought for sure that I would need to re apply the graphite- but nope, not even a coffee cups worth :thumbs:

    We go up to Ogunquit a few times a year. We were just there for a week in September to celebrate our anniversary, and will be going up for our annual December trip to celebrate the wife's birthday during the festival of lights. Typically stay at the Beachmere, love how central it is to get anywhere in Perkins Cove or in town. Love Billys, Bintliffs, and countless other restaurants up there - the Steakhouse in Wells is my favorite though! Save posted a picture of the coastline a few weeks back and it reminded me of so many of our trips. When we were up in September, we took a drive up to Pemaquid, that was our first time seeing it in person; such a thrill. Then we hit L.L. Bean, Main Beer Co, and Portland Head at Fort Williams in Cape Elizabeth on the way back home. Got some GREAT pictures. And of course, we have to go see Nubble every time too. I always register in the lottery to get out on that island...One day...We just love it up there...obviously! Have fun on your trip, now I can't wait to go back again too!
