Back in operation

We lit the Sedore today for the first time this heating season. It is starting to get cold at night, although we haven't had a frost yet. Tonight is predicated to get down to 35 and the days just in the high 50's. We have ordered a new Sedore 3000 with 3 water coils to be able to heat the water in our radiators and circulate the heat that way, since we found out it didn't work with only 1 coil for us. We also have a water tank hooked up to preheat some of the water that we use and cut back on our electric hot water heater. But we have not yet gotten the new 3000 so we are using our Old Faithful! Try to post some pictures soon of the new water hookup situation.
It feels good having the stove working for us again. We have a nice pile of wood from working hard over the summer. We will try to post at least once a week again as well.
