did a flue clean out, original baro-dampner was falling apart (corrosion), replaced it... And around noon fired up. the wind has been blustering pretty good all day, and still blowing good tonight. So in another hour or so will due another layer of coal, and shake.... to get into the12 hour service at 6AM/6PM. Also needing to get some coal (3 tons) in next few weeks, got about 2 Tons on hand.
