whew its friggen chilly this morning. I may be building me a wood fire tonight in the Harman. Been out for about 3 weeks now but im hearing the Black Juice Sucker kicken on so I must put a stop to that. Im thinking after the 13/14 winter I tearing that evil petroleum burning boat anchor out of this house. Call me crazy but im thinking of installing some small electric baseboard heaters in the bed rooms. But anywho before I steer too far away from topic, I will be droppin a match tonight.

I ran out of coal, so I'm burning some good seasoned hardwood for a few days. 70's after Tuesday

Still burning here, I normally burn all year but I'm still needing the heat. Crazy year, more coal than usual and still going.

I had the Kineo all cleaned up for the season but this cold snap we have, I started it back up Saturday. It looks like we are having a freeze/frost warning tonight and tomorrow so I will have it running for a couple more days at least. Have been able to keep it idling at 150° and keeping the house at 72°.

I fired up the DS after lunch today. Way too chilly this morning and it's supposed to be 30 tomorrow morning. I shut it down about 3 weeks ago and I thought that was it. I guess not.

Actually saw a few snow flakes around noon today. No need to fire up here though.
My wife and I are heading to Guatemala in the morning. Should be warm there.

I'm really regretting having shut the stove down. I'm really regretting disconnecting the stove from the chimney and I'm really regretting cleaning it out. It would seem winter is back. It was flurrying on the way home from work. It's going to be 30* tonight. WTF?

I am regretting having done the same exact things. Given it's dropping to 30 or so tonight, the DS is back up and running. Nice and toasty in here now.

I can't even relight it I have no more Cowboy coal and no dry wood what with all the rain we had the past few days. I've resorted to turning on my oil furnace to brake the edge off. I hate it.

Well on a good note they're calling for 70's after tomorrow so it's short lived. I was lucky enough to have a half ton left.

Get used to it. There's about another 2 Centuries of Global Cooling left to go through before the Sun cycle comes back around. It's just getting started.
