Multiple days now of mid 50's temps here in our part of Oregon with little to no rain. I don't even run the Homestead during the day, so then have to fire it up late afternoon in order to get the soapstone warmed up for the evening. What kind of woodburning is that! I was going to measure my wood consumption this winter and had two cords in the garage. Still have almost half that - mostly the oak I was saving for the really cold weather. I've even turned on the oil furnace a few times just to take the chill off but have only used about 6 gallon of oil so far this month. The sun is shining thru the windows at 3:30 in the afternoon and the inside temp is 72. I'm not sure I can take much more of this. Where is winter?
