I was going to say, "Dude, you need to get a stove or an insert! You're sending all your heat up the chimney!"
Then I saw you were in Vegas. Nevermind.
Then I realized your temps were already in the 80s. What the heck are you burning for?
Then I got it. As I said at the beginning, "you're sending all your heat up the chimney." In Vegas, you light fires to cool your house!!

Yes most of the heat is lost But the bricks heat up fast, dips down into the 50's early morning.
Ya not the most efficient, but heats up the front of the house no problem.

Jeez. It's 53 right now, likely will be the high temp and it's nice outside. Everyone is out in t shirts.

I lived in Idaho and saw 100+ in the summers. Didn't feel bad compared to 90* in Houston. Could barely walk to the car without sweating.
I'll stick with Alaska temps, much more agreeable to me.
Been to Dallas/ Ft Worth area when temps were in the 100 deg + mark in the shade- not for me. I was also there when it was around 40 and that was ok as it was 50 degs warmer than at home. The locals were dressed like it was 10 below. Stove had a couple days off. Might have hit 80 yesterday - now is back making heat again as it was down to apx 60 deg. inside. These creaking bones like it a bit warmer than that in the main area. Should be about 70 inside when I get home tonight. low of 40 or so for this evening plus maybe some rain. That dampness eats into me

It was upper seventies for a few days here, my wife cleaned out the stove and cleaned up the wood mess and said we are done burning... Today I hauled some more wood in, high of 55 low about 40.
I'm done now. Kids cleaned the stove and put the wood box under the porch.

Not that I'm burning much, but I am burning more than I usually do in early May. Getting real close to having to make a special trip to the bring more wood up from the woodpile to the deck.
On the plus, the interior of my house is the cleanest it's been in a very long while
Mid 30's for the next 3 nights .
ValleyFirewood: I feel really stupid. I thought you lived in Arkansas... My brother and sister were born in Ketchikan in the '40's. They're a bit older than me. Dad patrolled the Ileutian Islands during World War II.

Sharpen the chain, chuck chips ...repeat...
Ya had to re lite the boiler last night after having it off for near 2 weeks, going to 30 in a few days, after a high 90's last Tues... FLOG.....hopefully only burn for the next to 2 days then quit.
Probably our last frost forecast for this weekend, with highs around 50. Have been burning on and off for the past few weeks to take the evening chill off.
I can't friggin' believe I'm sayin' this, but with low 30s predicted by tomorrow morning... I'm likely gonna' haf'ta light that beast up again‼

Yup. Still burning in VT. Morning fire on Independence Day? I guess it could happen.
