Hit a balmy 33 degrees today. Let it burn down to just a few coals after the morning load and cleaned out the ash and cleaned the glass. Just loaded up with a mid size load of aspen and pine to get some coals for the overnight load.

Wasn't paying attention to the forecast yesterday...woke up to 28F and loaded up a full load of ash with split or two of locust and left for work. Warmed up to 57F and full sun by early afternoon....got a little toasty in the house. The pup didn't look pleased with me when I got home.

Got back home yesterday from the Northwoods. Steady diet of ash & sugar maple with the occasional piece of birch for the overnights in the NC30. Daytime is a mix of hardwoods and crap wood in smaller loads. Got a sloppy snowfall today. It won't snowblow, so I shoveled the problem area's. It'll freeze solid when the cold front comes through tonight, then Saturday will be around 40.
