Mostly just ashes with a few remaining coals, supposed to be 65 today & 40 tonight. I will load some Siberian Elm & Cherry scraps tonight to keep the chill out.
 
We had 24.2 this morning with a load of junk azz birch and some pine going in the Liberty.

smoldering some maple and red oak, temp is 42 outside with showers and a north east breeze, I'm sitting at a comfy 73 inside
 
It was in the sixties this morning with thunderstorms but by the time I got home from work it was 38. Gunna go down to around freezing with post and red oak coals now with more for overnight.

We're heading to around 38 for a low so we have a small fire going tonight.

Warmer here today, going to let the fire burn out and clean the ashes out sometime tomorrow, the weather forecast looks encouraging, 60's Monday - Wednesday, lows in the 40's, another cool shot of air coming towards Friday, so no more fires until then.

I've had my stove shut down for about a week and a half now, was thinking that was it for the season. However, starting Wed night, I'll be back to 24/7 burning! 9 days in a row of 50 or lower for the high and around 32 or lower for the lows, def worthwhile for keeping the stove going!

Happy I didn't quite get around the cleaning out the stove pipe yet :)

We had 26 this morning so we had two pine fires today, with the heat from that and the sun the old barn warmed up nice.
