so how many inches of snow, and when did it start falling up there crumm???

We don't have more than a inch or two here at the house. I did see some that was about 9" or so deep up North Friday night. Spent the weekend up the river Duck hunting and there seemed to be about 3-4" in most places up there. Temps hung in around 20º all weekend on the river. The low temps have froze up most the still water so the ducks were on the river

If Crummy keeps up his evil ways with that stove there'll be palm trees and Mai tais in Fairbanks within a decade.

It ain't me, it is the wife. When I got home tonight the wife had it about 75º in the house. It kinda felt good for a while after camping out all weekend in the cold but after a few minutes I could feel the sweat on my forehead.

Just for you Kev.....

You may live in Alaska ....by Jeff Foxworth



You may live in Alaska ....



Forget Rednecks, here is what Jeff Foxworthy has to say about Alaskans:



If someone in a Home Depot store offers you assistance and they don't
work there, you may live in Alaska .



If you've worn shorts and a parka at the same time, you may live in
Alaska .



If you've had a lengthy telephone conversation with someone who dialed a
wrong number, you may live in Alaska .



If you measure distance in hours, you may live in Alaska .



If you know several people who have hit a moose more than once, you may
live in Alaska .



If you have switched from 'heat' to 'A/C' in the same day and
back
again, you may live in Alaska .



If you can drive 75 mph through 2 feet of snow during a raging blizzard
without flinching, you may live in Alaska .



If you install security lights on your house and garage, but leave both
unlocked, you may live in Alaska .



If you carry jumpers in your car and your wife knows how to use them,
you may live in Alaska .



If you design your kid's Halloween costume to fit over a snowsuit, you
may live in Alaska .



If the speed limit on the highway is 55 mph -- you're going 80 and
everybody is passing you, you may live in Alaska .



If driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled with
snow, you may live in Alaska .



If you know all 4 seasons: almost winter, winter, still winter and road
construction, you may live in Alaska .



If you have more miles on your snow blower than your car, you may live
in Alaska .



If you find 10 degrees 'a little chilly', you may live in Alaska .



If you actually understand these jokes, and forward them to your Alaskan
friends & others, you definitely live in Alaska .

We are really liking this one. It has been in for a week now and I just figured up the pellet burn. 28 lbs a day which is 12 lbs a day less than I had figured . Will only need 3.2 ton for the winter rather than 4.5 if it keeps up this rate most the time. I know it will need to be turned up a little when we hit -20º and colder but I am confident that will not raise the use more than 12 lbs. Going to go ahead and get the other two ton so we have a five ton supply but there will be at least a ton left over for next year Sure is nice to sit by the cozy fire and know that the oil fired boiler is not burning a thing..
