It took me a couple of years before the wife agreed but she likes burning pine, saves on pellets, oil and hardwood.
I did tell her that I would clean the chimney after we were done burning pine each year, that sealed the deal.

First good cold front has set in for the week here. Will be dipping in the lower 30’s and high 20’s for the first time this year. A mixture of oak, locus and cherry to warm us through the evening and overnight.
As much as you have, keep on keeping on with your Pine!
Before I get going on the pine again, I want another two face cord of hardwood c/s/s before the Nov. 15.
I have been thinking about another stacking area for pine but that might have to wait until next year.
@moresnow , what temps are you getting in your area?
We are very warm yet with highs in the 40's and 50's with lows between 25 and high 30's. We even have a couple days in the 60's forecast over the weekend. Oddly warm fall. I am not complaining. At all!
That must be what we're going to get, Friday we hit 47, Saturday 49 and we keep on getting warmer with the temp almost hitting 60 on 11/12.
1st year I burned almost all pine, just faster reloads.

Its 41 out with a low of 35 tonight. I have a small load of post oak for overnight.
Pine, pine and more pine... it's all I have ready here in the northwoods of WI. Until the furnace is connected or I get wood from home up here, it's gonna be pine. I am going to haul some seasoned hard and soft wood from home (southeast WI). I was shocked when I tested the black ash I css last fall up here and some still wouldn't register on the meter. The birch was better, but not ready. Can't complain too much though, it's 64 degrees inside and right around 30 outside. Never got over 35 today.
We have 34.7 tonight with another load of pine going in the wood stove.

More cherry going in the stove this morning to warm up the house. 45 is the high today with a low of 30F.
Nights have been in the 30's. Having nightly fires with mostly oak. gets us through the night and the next day.
Another small batch of pine for this morning.
We had 34.5 this morning with more pine keeping us warm today. We also put in a small load of pine this morning.
Hello all! Another burning season is upon us 
Got the chimney swept today and burned 2 small break ins for the soapstone. This year will be almost exclusively hickory and red oak. Hope everyone had a good summer and I'm excited to read about everyone's wood burning adventures this season.

It's 29.8 tonight with either pine or some hardwood going in the wood stove. I added a few rounds from cherry tops and some smaller splits of yellow birch on top of the pine.

It's 39 as of now with a low of 30 tonight. I have some more post and red oak for tonight. Im trying to finish up last years stack still. I figure maybe a half cord left and I will be burning primarily all red oak the rest of the year.

Low of 30’s tonight, currently it’s 40 with a stove full of cherry and some oak. Cold is supposed to continue through the weekend. Once it dips into the 20’s I might sneak into the locust stash.

More oak and cherry for the evening/overnight. Supposed to be a low of 34F tonight.
Back home tonight after blowing the serpentine belt in the driveway this morning up north. Nothing like doing a serpentine belt on a diesel on a gravel driveway
Anyway, just loaded the NC30 up with a mix of ash and aspen. Nice to be back to the familiar stove instead of the new fireplace up north and decent wood. Going to haul some of the good stuff up with me Sunday to tide me over until the furnace gets finished...

I have a coals burning down. Will put a partial load of oak in overnight and will have a good bed of coals in the morning. The wife keeps it going during the day as she works from home.
