I believe that's the first snow picture. It looks very nice. I guess here we are going to break a record and go up 25 feels like 30C and sun
No wait I think there was an early snow storm in BC

My first fire, west central Saskatchewan. New stove and chimney… smoke detectors work, wife wasn’t too pleased to wake up to the alarms at 5:30. No snow or frost to date. Flowers at this time of the year should all be dead from frost, forecast is for frost tonight.

Looks great there. I've seen some guys fire up their stoves outside first. I wish I had done that before they installed my pellet stove new.

A new stove should have a break in fire or two that takes the stove to at least 260º C in order to bake in the paint. This is best done on a milder day when it's ok to open the windows. If possible, put a fan exhausting the air out of the room in a nearby window.

It was a perfect day to break in the new stove, 10C with 25km winds.

That was the plan except two big guys, 45 years younger offered to help me move the stove from the garage to the house. One time offer so I took it.
