Pretty much...and getting ready for the holidays. Once the cold weather hits in January things will pick up on the forum. :)

Yup, I'm making some online last minute Christmas purchases also. Our ground is open and green right now. Temp as low as 12 deg over the weekend. Muzzleloader season ends today :( Good news is the snow blower has not been out of the shed yet :D

Everytime I look at my plow truck, I'm reminded of CHRISTINE--just chomping at the bit :P Be nice to have some white stuff for Christmas, but I guess Doug Peters don't think so. :shock:

We had a dusting yesterday (Sun.). Just enough to cover the grass and cars and only lasted a few hours. Also just enough to tease my 8 yr. old. He's chomping at the bit to go sled riding.

Wow!! :shock: So did we, and a lot of it quick. Couldn't even see across the street. The downpour lasted about 10 min. but it was enough to flood the front yard.

Lol, I hear you there. As you said though, it is well worth it Christmas morning.

On my Hyfire, I am still only burning 1 burner, it's been keeping up pretty good with the mild temps. I typically go thru about 1 ton a month between the 2 stoves. I think I have only burnt about a ton since mid Oct. or so. It's only been down in the teens only a couple times at night.
