I hear ya! I have to go to Hayward in a bit. I think I’ll start the car and let it warm up some before I go. A remote starter would be nice about now.... I woke up to 55 in the house at 5 and the stoves been going for 3 hours now and it’s 65 in here now. A few more degrees and I can level it off some. I like it cool in the house. 68 or so is good for me and they say it’s easier on the shell of the house in these extreme temps.I don't want to leave the house!] View attachment 239074 View attachment 239073
I like a cool house but the wife not do much.she's part of the reason I put in a wood stove.-33 that's about time to put on a coatI hear ya! I have to go to Hayward in a bit.

PS- I have a cool -15 out now but on the radio they said it’s -33 in Bemidji Minnesota where the Mississippi River starts out as a small creek so we’re not so bad here after all lol.
Webster is just a bit east of me here in Winter. I was good friends with the family that owned and ran The Hudson House hotel and restaurant years ago and I used to go through Hudson every weekend when I still lived in the twin cities, on the way back home I’d hit I94 in Baldwin and take that to 494 to 35 to the south burbs and vise versa on the way up. I sure am glad I don’t do that weekly trip back and forth anymore.Good to see all the Wisconsin guys on here. I’m from hudson have a cabin near Webster drive thru miltown on way up. We’ve kept the cabin open all winter, wife’s up there this week keeping stove going. Looks like next week is going to put a dent in wood supply.
Sure hope so.after all of the grief the gave last some I love watching them die.Well a couple weeks ago when it was pushing 30 the mosquitos were out in the snow, I'm thinking this week should do em in

Snow mosquitoes. There actually is such a thing. Something new to learn. We had some in the house up until a couple weeks ago. No one believes us.Well a couple weeks ago when it was pushing 30 the mosquitos were out in the snow, I'm thinking this week should do em in

What's the humidity level? Got a humidifier this year and upper 60s with mid 40s humidity is very comfortable. Whereas last year, low 70s felt cold. Started drying my laundry on hangers in my stove room too to save energy and add humidity.I would rather have the 111 geoff1969, but I’m a hot weather person. I like the thermostat reading Wolf1022008, we keep a warm house usually 75 to 76. But it’s not unheard of for rooms near stoves to hit 78, sometimes the basement gets to 80 that can be a little much. The far bedrooms for my little girls are right around 70 but my oldest daughter has a bed full of blankets and stuffed animals. She could sleep in the garage with her setup and stay warm. The youngest has just as many blankets in her crib. I don’t get it you would think the house is freezing.
