The End Is Near! ... hehe

Still burning coal in northwest NJ! Looks like I might have to buy more coal again....Oh I forgot that global warming is heating everything up...This is April isn't it? In the 1980's the environmentalist wackos were predicting global cooling...maybe they were right!
Obviously I have been working too hard lately.

Still burning here in Central Maryland. I'll be getting a pickup load of coal this weekend. Since October 28, 2006 I've burned 5.25 tons for heat and domestic hot water.

I shut my boiler down 2 weeks ago during the warm spell. I thought the cold was done. Now, I have been running the wheels off my little Harmon Mark II that I have in my basement. So much so that I have cracked and/or just flat broke 4 firebricks in it in the last 2 weeks !!!

I'd like to pick up loose coal this summer for next year, bagged is much more expensive. I'll most likely have to buy 10 more bags this week.

Hey wood/coal do you have a truck or a trailer come up here to pa. and get some coal at the brekers today it 120.00 a ton in june or july it will be down around 80 to 100 a ton it depends on what breaker you go to you will save lots of $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ that way pm me if you need info on where to go.

Could really be the end of heating season now...but it's supposed to cool off later this week...

Indeed, the end may be HERE.

hehe

still idling along ....been in the 30's at night still, but we have had 65-70 a couple of days.....only supposed to be back in the 40-50's, so, I keep it running.

After a brief flurry of coal burning this week....I think it's finally the END. But I've said that before!

Suprisingly the forum has stayed quite active through april. It's almost comical, I can look at the server stats and almost tell you how cold out it was that day.

OK, now server hits will need to be compared to heating degree-days...
