well the decision was made......added another bag to the almost gone coal bed as the hi 40's low 50's is just not comfy....
I would be nice to get some warmer weather soon.....
that first match was a doozy

I can't believe anyone is still burning. I shut down what seems like months ago. Sure it gets a little cool in the house overnight but with the windows open what would you expect.

the swings up here on the plateau don't have safety straps
there is sometimes a 12* difference from up here in the Pines to down at the Gap, in the 'Burgs.....
We had snow the other day, folks down there looked at me like I was crazy when I told em
Kinda like that look that the Stove Fairy gets when he trodds the beaten path to Chester NY....
this area is where they used to farm ice, to supply the folks in News Yorks City and Filth-a-Deltheia.. so there's remenants of cold damp air, everywhere

Thought I would be done by now, however, I am still burning. Snow and mid 30 F temps dictates my keeping the coal stove burning. I actually enjoy this.
