It's about 35 out with some rain so I started a fire with some soft maple.
 
It was 36.7 this morning, we turned on the propane fireplace for some quick heat.

We had 31 this morning, we used the propane fireplace while having coffee. Tonight they're calling for a low of 27 so we'll burn the rest of the ironwood (3 splits) and some cherry and maple.
 
Before supper I made a fire with with some smaller cherry splits, I'll had a few more cherry rounds in a couple of minutes which should give me some nice coals for the last (hopefully) overnight fire of the season.
 
I burned small Balsam fir fires most of the day yesterday and today with the wind and rain. Tomorrow will probably just be a small fire in the morning and evening.

I'm not sure if we'll hit the high forecast of 59 but the 55 with a low of 39 feels nice. Tomorrow I'll get some stacking in before we get a bunch of rain.
 
We had 41 this morning so we gave the house a quick 3 minute blast from the furnace, our wood stove should be done until the third week of September.
 
We had a morning fire and now I'm warming the house back up. It hit 54 today, but not much solar gain on the house. I was outside most of the day, but the house started at 73 when I went out and was 64 when I came back in.
 
We had 56.3 this morning, that felt nice.
 
Still experimenting with pine, 38 outside, 85 in the house. Was curious as to what kind of burn time I could get on pine with air control rod half open.

We had 38 this morning so we went with a propane fire, I did see that we have ten splits in the basement so the question is do I burn them or take them back out.

Burn them. Sometimes I think about putting one of those really small propane fireplaces in our bathroom.

Name change, Pen? Or am I delusional? :)
 
Some ashes, paper towels from cleaning stove room windows (swapped out insulated curtains for sheers () ), a cardboard pasta box, some newspaper, and a Super Cedar wrapper.

All unlit ;)

Delusional works, and I remember Zap :)
It finally stopped raining so maybe tomorrow I can get back stacking, how's everything in Long Island?

I'm not sure if you're a hockey fan but the Islanders looked great the first series.
 
It's 45 this morning so we had a propane fire this morning.
 
high of 72 today and sunny, nothing but ash, and I couldn’t be happier after this past week of rain
It was nice here too @sweedish , it's drying up pretty good back here in the woods but if you live on the water in a low area things might get worse.
