Man that wood stove feels good!
 

All the cutting, splitting, stacking, more stacking, and cleaning up is all worth it when the weather turns this chilly. Just finished dumping wood where I'll finish stacking the six or seven cords I split earlier this year. A friend of mine let me use his Kubota tractor, whcih has a 1/2 yard scoop and a backhoe on it to get the wood from where I split it to where it is stacked for future use. Back gets a little sore from all the bending this way and that, but when your sitting in front of the tube with the stove going, well little else needs to be said. Merry Christmas everyone.

i laughed today when I walked out back and there was 5 brazilians in the back of a dump truck with sledge hammers trying to get something out of the body that was froze solid. They were there for about 2 hours.
unreal.
Cooooooooold today I was sposed to be up in Maine on a tower job but the pilot couldn't fly with the wx up there so thanks God we cancelled.

Stove is cranking, and it feels great:btu:

I worked outside for 10-12 years.
Nothing better than a real fire afterwards.
Lived in a condo with a fireplace for three years.
