If this bit of lore be true, we'll be getting the old iron beast fired up in a matter of weeks.

Frost may be expected six weeks from the time the goldenrod first
blooms.

Goldenrod's been in bloom for over a week here in NH.

101 her today but I have been checking out my wood rack and everything is drying out very well.

The wife and I are ready.

Looking at at-least another 3 months here before it's time to even consider firing that puppy up. I'll be satisfied when the time comes to shut off the AC and open the windows.

I was watching the weather channel yesterday and jennifer carfagno said, "one bung. two mouths groan" as she was pointing at a map of north america. She just stared at the camera for about a minute&a half after she said that, completely silent but continuing to point at the map until they went to commercial. So I figure I won't have to fire the stove up until mid-late october based on her forecast.

Neat bits-o-lore, woodbooga.

Around here, first frost comes the the morning after I forget to pull in the last harvest of goodies from the garden. :censored:

I just told the girls at the daycare center I wanted some upfront money for salt today. They said I was crazy to be thinking about it so soon. I said that not only was I crazy but when I am plowing the lot I am stone drunk to boot.
