I can't even seem to make an annual post here!
We've made it through the 2012-13 heating season for the most part. We've had a false spring the last week with days topping in the 50's and even some rain when you would expect snow!
We are roughly 2 cords of wood in and days like today, the house only dropped to mid 60's overnight and back up into the low 70's without any direct heat input.
It remains difficult to get the firewood sizes needed for the cookstove, but a little extra effort and patience have paid off.
The dog now gets a 6 mile run every day up an arroyo nearby, behind (or in front of) my truck... this is just enough to make her sleep well, but not nearly enough to entertain her opposite our sedentary lifestyles.
Sigh...
