    If anyone is looking for or knows someone in MI or surrounding areas who may be looking for a Fahrenheit pellet furnace, here you go.

    Belmont is about 10 miles north of Grand Rapids.

    Glad mine is going. Wind chills are supposed to get down to the zero range tomorrow.

    I shoveled off the back patio so the dog could go out and do her business without doing a snowplow impersonation. We have around 6" of snow, so it doesn't take much for an 8 pound dog to get lost in. Fed and watered the ducks, threw a bag of pellets in the furnace, and that's it.

    I have a string of long work days coming up this week, so I figured I'd be lazy today.

    Yep, now there is a full larder including TP.

    Will likely bottle my hard cider on Thursday while I'm doing the warsh.

    Tomorrow we are supposed to have some weather, that was the reason we went to the big city today. Went to exactly one place and then came home, it was our annual BJs run.

    Then we will officially be ready for winter.

    Blew 65 bags of insulation into the attic today. Made one heck of a mess. Was an all day job by the time I picked up the insulation, blew the first 30 bags, went and got more, blew 35 more bags, then had to return the extras and the blower and then spend a few hours cleaning up. I'm beat.

    On the bright side, it's 30 degrees right now. Last year, prior to air sealing and insulating the attic properly and replacing the old drafty front door, I would normally run the CPM on 5-5 to keep the house comfortable when it was 30 degrees out. Tonight, it's cruising away at 3-4. Saving pellets already:dex:

    It is whiting out here and we were supposed to be on the rain side of things, so much for that. I expect a bit of a mess later as in freezing crud, then rain.

    It was a little bit slushy for me, But by the time I headed off to work it was turning to all rain. Just a few slick spots on some of the back road and the shoulder of RT 8. Once I got past Harwington is was clear sailing.

    Made it to the tire shop. Its been snowing most of the day, but we've gotten about 2 inches in the past hour. Talk about a white knuckle drive.
