Feels good to have enough coal in the bunker for the winter!

Fortunately,Sanity is something that I've never been accused of!! Freddy caught me rummaging through the Galley for that damned Woolrich Wool Sock that Freetown Fred always used as a filter to make the Coffee with... Folks kinda' had gotten used to thatWool/Mellow Roasted slant the Coffee always had! Now next week,I have it from High Authority that We're having Maine Blueberry Pancakes with Batter stirred by an 'Ol Everrude Outboard Motor brought back from North Camp! Stand by for Culinary Adventure!!

Hummm, Looks like you have plenty of room for a boiler next to that coal pile.

Are you running out of places to put them at your boiler farm??!! This coal bunker's waaaayyyyy to far from the house & I've read enough boiler threads to know boilers should go in the basement (or garage!) to keep from long underground, undersized, underinsulted pex runs, too small circulators and wasting all that radiant heat!-

Dern, It is tough finding homes for these things.
I agree, I'm not a big fan of the remote install.
