    Got a few things to do for work today but my calendar suddenly cleared this AM. Taking the kiddos trick or treating tonight. Gonna cut a few loads tomorrow. Sharpened a chain this AM and got the saw all ready to go. Just need to hook up the trailer in the morning. I'm ready for the weekend.

    I decided to go out and cut a small load this afternoon. It sounded like 2x4 scraps clinking together when I loaded it in the trailer...so it went directly in the basement. I guess I'll be burning a little hedge in November.

    Thanks Jack, going to use wood curtain rods and old school mounts (2 x 4 blocks with jigsaw cut). No big box stores here and the local hardware store is $$

    I'm sitting at the dining room table with the Ipad, a lit IS is in front of me and my wife is to my left in the living room. She peeks out the windows to see if any trick or treaters are coming and meets them at the door. We carved Jack O Lanterns tonight, the fun never ends, even at age 48.

    YUP! Ideal Steel by Woodstock is a hybrid. Quite the stove so far, haven't really stretched her legs yet but I'm sure I'll have a bunch to write about soon

    Good question! The IS has both the ability to burn a secondary (burn tubes in most stoves) and it has a catalyst.
    It can burn solely with the secondaries and both with the secondaries and the cat.

    My husband just arrived home with our daughter, she kept talking about "Her Bike" ? 10 min later I looked over the fence.
