Well the snow is blowing and the wind is howling here. You just could not keep it out there in the Dakota's could you!! Although all they are calling for is snow showers. This is probably lake effect snow.

I had to go and get a little more wood for my wood stove this morning. My old Ford really groaned when I drove it to the woodshed to fill it. The nice thing about wood heat... it was seventeen degrees out, but after I unloaded that truck load of wood you'd of thought it was 90 degrees out the way I was sweating...

A couple years back there was an old abandon farm out in the middle of no where and they were going to bulldoze it. The guy (from the cities) that bought the land wanted to build his family a new "cabin" where the old house was.

A friend of mine got permission to go in there and take what he wanted. Well in there was one of the old porcelain door wood cook oven/stoves and it was in real good shape. It had the water boiler on the side, but that was rusted out.

So of course he called others and me to come and help him get it out of there. He put that in his kitchen and that thing almost heats his first floor of the house. His wife cooks on that all the time.
