This is the first time we have lit up at home in June. Hope we don't lose the tomatoes tonight.

Your tomatos shoulda ended up ok after last night, right? Only got down to what, 45ish? I slept with the windows open and was fine
 
Finally got the ski boat out and spent the entire day out on the water, even jumped in a couple of times (cold water). Summer is finally here and I got the sunburn to prove it!!!!

Really? You might be the only one still buying into that BS. The war is over. Gore and his giant carbon footprint are just cashing the checks now! The ski area's have reopened in the Rockies and my neighbors just got back from vacation in The Florida panhandle and froze their a$$es off for a week. Enough.

A-OK. We got down into the 30s in the hills south of the city but no frost.

Bury your head in the sand, there's bound to be a lot of it.

Nah. Temp 95 and dewpoint 72. I thought about it but decided to pass on a fire today and run the daylights out of the air conditioners instead.
That's the beauty of a fire. As the temp in your house rises, the relative humidity drops. :cheese:

I had a lot of pistachio nut shells to burn down.
Can you start saving those pistachio shells for me? I'm not sure my wood's gonna be dry.
:lol:
 
June 11...sitting here in rainy, cool mid-Michigan with a nice little fire in the new Oslo.
 
Burned wood later in the spring than I ever had before this yr. (middle of may). Then went directly to mid to upper 90's every day. Needless to say we went from late winter to summer here, no in between.
 
June 13...46 degrees and another nice fire this morning. We had 90's a couple of days last week then it dropped back down. I wouldn't be so happy about this, but for the stove being new. Glad to get a chance to enjoy it without having to wait until fall. :) Vicky
