than sitting by the woodstove. Sadly that's NOT what I'm doing but my family is enjoying it. Part of working 3-11, start the fire, go to work, and enjoy when you get home.

Yup. Even better on a cold snowy day. I can relate to you, I'm working 4-12 shift right now. We rotate. I like the sounds of 3-11 better than 4-12.
Yep, you are correct! Once in a while, when it's in the dead of winter and I am at the locomotive shop working (where you get very little heat), the wife will send me a pic on my smartphone of the stove 'a cranking......makes me warm right up....

Just started a fire in ours. First one we've had in several days. Looks like it will be quite regular burning again now. It's okay though. We have plenty of dry wood.
Still 69 degrees and almost a bit muggy here, Sav. But some BIG changes in store over the next 5 days. I'll probably not have to build a fire til tomorrow afternoon, unless the boss wants me to build one later tonight just because its..........our 15th wedding anniversary!

Looks like 50 will the the high for today here Scott. Each day for several days a bit cooler. It actually feels really nice out there today because it is not windy. We've had lots of wind lately and more coming. But now there are barely any leaf left on the trees so the wind won't blow any more down; just blow around. Probably see some snow flakes soon.
Congrats. on the 15 yr. anniversary Scotty!!
If you start a fire tonight, bet it's NOT in the stove.

I hear you...I'm finally getting my stove installed on the 31st, and I'm going on a three day business trip, leaving on the.....you guessed it....31st. That's cold. Kinda like lighting a fire, only to have to leave it.
I'll really be looking forward to coming home and firing it up.

We won't have our 15th until '14, but this is the 2nd go 'round for both of us.
I got a little fire going early this afternoon, then added a couple Maple splits, and turned down the air. Went out to split some more wood, and when I got back in the house, it was nice and toasty.
I missed most of the fire though.

At least on second you can start the morning fire, get the house warm and have the stove reloaded for a cruise by the time you leave.
Stove is on now, maybe for the long haul. I'm burning up some oddball chunks of soft and hard Maple, and have Ash splits to supplement full loads, which I'll have several of for the next week, anyway.
