Went sking at Snowshoe WV this weekend. Went to the Foxfire Lounge and was greeted by this fine piece when you first came in the door!!

It looked to be in very nice condition, although it didn't have any glass in it. They had it filled with rocks and christmas lights. From a distance it really looked like it was in use!

Wow That is one attractive stove. I never saw one with as many windows as that one. Lots of nickel plating too. I suppose the windows were originaly mica.

OK, OK, Fred. :surrender: I added the name of the town I live near. It's a wide spot in the road, and I live three miles out, so if someone wants to steal me, they'll have to work pretty hard to find me. This is a nice area IMHO; the county is 942 square miles, 9000 people, 3 stoplights. I grew up in the city but I sure would hate to have to live in one again.
