    Hate to quote myself, but an addendum is in order.

    Walking around with the pup today I realized I never measured one of the stacks, it's an incomplete stack, but still.

    Roughly .42 cord in that short-stack.

    Sooo..
    Roughly 2.82 cord S&S awaiting next winter.

    Got the Queen of the hill restocked yesterday afternoon, she's feeling better. Fell CHRISTmas morning and bummed up her shoulder and wrist and then had the stomach bug that's going around. Didn't break anything, praise GOD. IMG_20190105_171349214.jpg

    Hey Jeff. Might be worth taping plastic over the window air. If not pull it out. They are a huge heat loss spot. Almost like a open window in the vent area. Gotta love the wood pile directly behind the seating! Efficient!

    Thanks, I'll check it out. Can't take it out, those are old style crank out windows. Daddy had to cut the glass to put that in...

    Being my 1st season I'd say about at least a cord maybe even 1.5 cords of mostly Oak, Pine and a little maple.

    Gives me a good idea going forward. Thinking 3 cords for a winter is my 3yr plan goal.

    I'm up to almost 1.5 cord burned so far. Starting Friday will put a big dent in the stacks.
