With the weather starting to turn I thought I would get a jump on getting the stove
ready for the heating season. So I ran a brush down the chimney and did the leaf
trick oiled the bearings filled it with pellets hit the on button, proceeded to the garage
for a beverage or 2 only to hear this strange noise that didn't ring a bell at first. Walking
back from the garage I figured out what the noise was, it was the smoke detectors in
the house. So now I know when starting the stove in warm weather shut the windows
and doors so the smoke doesn't come back in the house. (DUH)

I used my bagels to check my smoke detectors:) October is fire prevention month.
 
The rustic style OAK is not recommended.
