Better go get the 'Brass Monkey' inside for the night. You know it's gonna be cold enough to freeze the balls of your poor brass monkey for a few days. Bring him inside for his own safety!

When I left the cabin this morning for work around 4:30, It was 15 up on the mountain and the wind was HOWLING. Today it made it up to 19 degrees. This what I have been waiting for to test out my Glenwood Baseheater. The fuel consumption has climbed just a small amount to about 35 lbs per day to keep the basement, and living areas quite comfortable. I've noticed a few air leaks around the windows in my house with the high wind. No problem, fresh air is good for you. I made a little secondary fire in the Stanley Argand in the Living Room and I was walking around in a tee shirt all over the house.
Go Glenwood Go.
Go Glenwood Go.

Todays high was 34*, currently 27.5*, the low so far was 19* this morning. I don't think we will beat that before this day (12/22/09) is over.
