Im sitting in front of my wood stove right now listening to the familiar ticking and enjoying the warm glow. Its been around 6 weeks since Ive had a fire so its rather nice. We had a storm roll through last night and the power went out around 7. It was fun playing games with the kids in front of candle light, no tv or devices! We woke up to 7c and still no power and a chilly house so the wife and kids asked me to light the stove. We dont get many power outages so it was odd for me to only have the wood stove as a heat source. I didnt think there was any reason to have to be cold so out into the rain I went looking for some dry wood (not hard at my house). We didnt get above 11c all day and even though the power came on early afternoon we were happy to keep the furnace off. Looks like we will be up to 30c in a couple of days and the stove will go dormant again for another 6 weeks. Hope you are all having a great summer!
