    It was a sad morning, before heading to work I put the last bag of Somersets in the hopper:(. 1 Ton of Cheat Rivers left, hopefully this will take us down the home stretch to the warm weather. We have used 1 ton of Cheat Rivers and 1.5 Tons of Somersets since Halloween and that is running pretty much 24/7, according to my calculations it will be close. I hope that the days will start warming up and we can switch to only having to run it at night or switch to the thermostat at least.

    Oh yea and that is a big 0 gallons of oil used for heating this year.

    So 2.5 tons.....not too bad. It would be interesting to know where you're located, since you don't have it listed in your avatar info box.

    Yeah...I heard they aren't shipping anymore Somersets east of Ohio. We're all glad you East Coast guys got to give our Sets' a try, but from now on we'll keep them in the Midwest. ::-)

    Thats a sad story :(

    But as Jrsdws says, I prefer the Sets to stay close to home.

    I have only burned about 6 bags of Sets this year. Been hoarding them.

    Who are you quoting?

    I only burned a few bags, because thats all I wanted to burn. I have almost 5 ton sitting and waiting for the Hoppa. But the Sets are being saved and on standby! LOL ;)
