28 this morning, a bit on the chilly side. Starting to warm up, so this might have been the last fire till Fall season.
Are you still burning

Same here, in Windom MN a few hours south of you. Will be splitting after work tonight, down to my last few cords. Will probably burn thru Fri-Sat. Heating season from hell indeed

Built one today - first time ever in May. Cold front came in last night and it went down in the 40's. Supposed to get down there again tonight.
Heading for 39 F tonight. I have a few dry logs left indoors. What the heck? Why not keep the house a little warm using firewood?
P.S. The whole week looks rather cool thanks to Mother Nature. She likes to laugh at global warming.
I thought I was done... I was sure I was done... I just lit the furnace about an hour ago... DAMNNIT‼

Heck, Northeast Iowa is colder than western Nebraska. You guys are looking at frost warnings. What more excuse do you need? Super-low propane prices, now that we took care of China last winter?
Well... I lit the wood-fired furnace... it don't matter how cheap the LP is, the gas furnace don't even have the fuse in the circuit (I robbed it for somethin' else back in November).

Lit a fire last night and loaded it again this morning. Looks like we'll be burning all week! Is this the
end of the burning season or the beginning of the next season?

Still getting some frosts at night here. Burning every 3 days now, for DHW & the odd morning warming. I'm going to see how it goes with burning year round for DHW - making a fire on when it's 80+°f in July might make me say screw it, but if I can streatch it out to once a week I'll likely do it.

She just lit it so, yes, guess so
Fired up the stove last night as it was 66 inside when I got home, Likely fire it up again this evening as it was somewhere in the low 60's all day and on /off cloudy additionally calling for some more rain tonight and rest of week. So likely be firing up the stove every evening through Sun. Have somewhere between a 1/3 and a 1/2 cord left yet of dry fuel. Outside stacks are soaked from the 2.5+ inches of rain we got Mon/Tue. Glad it wasn't the frozen White stuff - would still be digging out.
