Got fireplace going still on occasion. Temp is 42 here now, low of 33 tonight. I have never burned this late in the season before. Im burning ash that I cut last september...
The novelty of the fire has worn completely off. We had 4-5 inches of heavy wet stuff thurs. The temp have been in the low teens off and on for a while, we did have a nice little warm up a while back though. I am ready for some warm, not hot weather. I am getting tired of restarting two stoves daily, not to mention the amount of wood that I have burned this year.
I dont mind building a fire but I have to say I have been sick 3 times this year and I usually only get the bug about every 3 or 4 years. I have been so sick this year that I had to miss work, and that dont happen very often...I wont even go into the hospital bills and doctor visits for my wife and kids...
