Aren't you in FL somewhere?



Low is 17F here tonight, not looking forward to waking up every few hours to keep the fire going.





This morning I started up the Volvo (my mother-in-law's car I'm borrowing), went over a small bump in our yard, and the dash piece by the windshield split right down the middle, with a nice "pop" sound.

Get one of these heaters. A friend gave me an old one, and it heats my detached 3-car garage pretty well. Not sure I'd want one in my house though.

Our wood stove heats the house plenty (sometimes too much), I just need to hire some midget to shove wood in every now and then (that's what she said?).



A copper shield in the rear keeps the heat off of nearby electronics, and our high living room ceiling funnels the hot air to the bedrooms above. Works quite nicely!
