Just want to say good luck to all as we get ready for some of the coldest weather in a long time. May have to throw a little coal to the stove to help them burn times get thur this cold spell.

I had to leave town this weekend.  I loaded at 8 a.m. on Saturday with 3 - 5 gal buckets of large lumps of coal and the rest with hedge.  Turned the thermostats down in the house.  It got down to 5 Saturday night.  Came home on Sunday around  5 or so and still had wood left in there!!  I didn't actually load until Sunday night! 

Getting cold here this week.  Was -5 this morning.  Going to see if the wife can stand me putting in some coal.  Have to pray for a north wind or she won't let me!! 

How did you fare with that snow Mr. Kybaseball??  We ended up with about 8" here.

We ended up with about a foot or so. Been putting a little coal with wood and getting really long burn times. Man you can't beat these stoves.

Yep, gonna be some cold nights for the next few.  Supposed to hit -7 tonight.  We rarely get negative temps here. 

Kybaseball, have you replaced your door rope yet?  I think I'm starting to get some serious air leakage now.  I hope to finish out the burn season, but I don't know.  I'm getting some serious temp over-runs.  Might have to replace it sooner.  1.5 seasons doesn't seem very long to me for a rope.  Hopefully Slim can still sell those silicone ropes even though he's with HM now. 

How bout it Slim?  You still selling them?
