Looks like we will have some warm temps here Sun-Tues, a relative heatwave ;) too bad Monday will be rainy. I feel for all those people dealing with the snow, that's gonna make one huge mess! Hoping for a nice turkey day for everyone :D

I don't mind it being cold, just not this cold in early to mid November. Been below zero the last week here in 'da U.P. making it a chilly start to the day while doing animal chores. Jan or Feb would be appropriate, but not THIS early. Oh well. .....

Sure don't hear much from 'ole Al Gore and the global warming/climate change zealots at the moment!!

It is going to warm up here to, they said maybe 65 on Monday. Then cool back down the rest of the week. I am going to try to keep the stove going but it will be pretty warm out. I may not have enough draft. :mad:

Pretty warm here in 'da U.P. eh? So, I've gone back to burning just wood instead of coal, so as to keep a decent bed of embers and not overheat the house!! But by Wednesday we're supposed to be back into the cold weather again, so it'll be time to shovel on the coal once more! :)

I am going to try to keep it going, but I guess we will see. Today we are battling the leaves! The fun never ends. :?
