Bless her... the wife kept the fire going today. It went down to -28°C last night so I kept the fire going overnight and got it nice and hot in the morning. Tossed on a couple of big pieces and charred them before turning down the air and going to work.
Now, I always contended that I can run the stove turned down and not blacken the glass... So, I pull into the driveway and smell this horrible stench of a fire barely smoldering. My first thought was a neighbor must be burning wet wood. No, the closer I get the my house, the worse the smell. Inside, I see the glass blackened worse than I've ever seen in all the years I've burned. Two large splits, barely any any flame, air turned all the way down.
Bless her... the wife kept the fire going today. I ain't sayin nuttin to her about the blackened glass. Just going to bite my tongue. Hope she doesn't read this.
