We had 24.2 this morning with some ashes going out to the fireplace and then the Liberty received a small load of cherry splits.

Found a few logs that was covered by the previous owner of the house. I’m pretty sure it’s red oak. Not sure how long it was sitting there but let me tell you it was extremely hard to split compared to fresh oak. I put a few in the stove and it lite right up. Seasoned for sure!
 
No burning this week. It's very warm and I've been too busy celebrating Christmas . Today I moved wood to the front porch and splits some kindling in preparation for colder weather in January.

Hope everyone had a Merry Christmas. Weather has been quite mild for December but back to highs in the 20-30 area and lows of single digits, brought some mahogany and juniper in for the next couple nights; back to higher temps next week.
 
It has cooled off a little here...its 45 now so i through a few oak splits in the stove to knock the chill out of house. I will let it burn out and probably wont reload until tomorrow night after t-storms and cold front pass through.
 
The last I looked it was 30.2, more cherry tonight.
 
21.4 this morning with more cherry going in the wood stove.

The manual as we haven’t gotten it installed yet. We hope it will be done at the end of the week if the insulated liner arrives in time. Some cool air might move down by then, too, so maybe I’ll get a chance to break it in.

(I can’t find the cooking posts now, but I just started a thread in the inglenook for such things if you want to share there @thewoodlands, @SpaceBus, or others.)

It was 60 degrees at 11:30pm last night...so ash right now, but not the wood, actual ash.
