I came in from shoveling the driveway and walk, and went straight to the fire. It was cruising along, showing 475 at the back corner (that's about 600 top center) took off my socks, pants, shoes and gloves to dry them off. We've all done it: we've held up wet articles in front of the intense radiant heat to observe the steaming "lightning dry". What I didn't realize was the quarter-sized chunk of snow stuck in the slightly rolled pants cuff. When I unrolled the cuff, it flipped itself out and wedged behind the window-grid right against the glass. It did not sizzle; it SPAT, and was gone...and the glass just sat there! I guess I really dodged a bullet this time. That'll never happen again. Whew!
