Still burning AND still the first match!! Gretel is cold. But the bear is at 450* and cooking. Only about 300# left from the 6 ton

Hope the warm comes soon or else Santa bags here we come

Upper 60's today but cooler temps later in the week. Day of open windows!

sheesh back down into the 30s at night again!!! Tree's are budded out, bushes have leaves, grass is green and it's going down to the 30's tonight.

Relite the stove Momma says.

Still burning here too. Idling the stove around 140-200* depending on the temps. The other night we had some real bad thunderstorms, lost power a few times briefly, that was a bit harrowing as I had to turn the stove up to keep a draft when there was no power. Draft dropped right to 0"wc on the Dywer. Yesterday morning when I woke up it was 29*.

Burning again here, last weekend we went away from Sunday to Monday when I came home she was out and I had all my coal dumped out onto the floor due to uncontrolled ashing grate. I gave her a good cleaning and fired her back up. I am going to have to put a timer on it to keep it running through the warmer weather for my hot water needs. I was hoping it was the coal I was burning last season that gave me such fits with staying lit but I see I was wrong. Not looking forward to the timer option but looks like it is a necessary evil.

I thought I was done for the season and let it go out on Sat Apr 13, only to re-light it on Fri Apr 19. I'm remodeling and I didn't want my paint job ruined by big temperature swings. Still have plenty of UAE Harmony nut left in the bin, probably 2 tons yet.

So now that UAE coal is no longer.. who wants to buy some? I'll sell what I got left for $500 LOL
