Working weekend

L

So our investment of a wood burning furnace last fall made a lot of sense.  And what a difference it makes on the gas heating bill.  This totally efficient stove really warms our downstairs basement/living area (in total about 1400 sq. ft)  By heating the basement level, the first floor benefits from the heat as well. But in order to use the wood burning stove, we need wood.  We can order it locally, haul it back from the UP or take advantage of a lightning strike. 

So here’s the wood pile we stacked this afternoon after painting that side of the house earlier today – told’cha it was a working weekend. And this is minus the big woodbox I stuffed to the gills yesterday.  While I’ll never say “bring on winter”, at least this year we’ll save about $300 with our “free” wood.
