I'll burn furniture before I let oil prices affect my fishing. Of course, my wife would say we could heat the house for a month by burning my wooden plugs hanging from the basement rafters. Fat chance.

I upgraded to a high eff. gas furnace, I also use a pellet stove in the fam room. So far this year I have used only one ton of pellets, as compared to two last year, and the gas company lowered our monthly budget payment almost 1/2 of last year. So mild winter and better furnace= more boat fuel !!!

That is what I figure. If the winter stays mild for the next couple of months they will raise prices even more to make up for lack of usage. |
