Who's Going to Light up Today?
Just wondering how many are going to be lighting up today. Weather Bug is showing freeze warnings for most of NY and PA. I have been idling along for about a week or so to keep the chill off. Have only used about a hoppers worth of coal since firing up. Will top it off today and empty the ash pan. Supposed to get down into the mid to upper 20's tonight.

Flipped 2 switches and closed 1 damper on the Alaska this morning (that starts up the forced-air system). Lighting the hand-fed is not far off!
OOPS! Wrong state!

Brought our Citrus trees inside for the winter, today. They can't take below 40F weather. Fired up the DVC-500 at 3:00 this afternoon. It ws sunny out, but 68F in the house. Not bad, but I knew it would get colder tonight, so went ahead and stoked it up.

I don't hear anyone happy about the cooler weather over on the Oil Forum.
