Oh sheet, where's the fire hose?...

I'm glad it wasn't any worse. That's gotta suck.

Whoa!

Wow ,IM glad no one got hurt. Im wndering if home owners ins. would pay you for fire damage and 30 cords of wood. 30 cords at 200 a cord is 6000 bucks.

Single tear running down my cheek, weeping for my fellow woodburner

That was a great commercial. I bet all the old dudes here remember it, oops, did I just give away my age? That sentiment is quite appropriate here.

Looks like you had plenty of heat for a little while at least! Glad to hear that nobody got hurt.

Wow, sorry bout ur wood n stove, culda been worse, last winter guy down the roads hardy caught a bunch of leaves on fire that in turn caught the wood pile on fire that was stacked against the garage that had his truck, tractor, splitter and saws in it. Not a pretty picture.

 

[FLHX Storm]

Damn! That had to have been gut wrenching without a doubt. I could say I would have likely soiled myself if that would have happened to me.

Hopefully your OWB or the rest of your property didn't incur any damage!

OK I found the old commercial from 1971 and mentioned earlier. That thing has been haunting my memory. I have the same feeling when I see a man's work and the environment being wasted. I'm guessing more on this site feel the same.
