Montana morning next to the wood stove

Last night it cleared off and we have a brisk -18 F this morning.
Just over 2' of new snow and today is starting out glorious!
The next snowstorm is due to arrive tomorrow...
Luckily for us, we live part way up the mountain in a sheltered valley, and everything is calm.
3/4 of a mile away, down by the river it is -22 F with wind-blown snow.
The house wood stove is burning nicely.
The old cook stove in the kitchen is burning as well.
The RMH is lit in the greenhouse, where it was 42 F this morning with no fire all night and currently is 63 F and rising.

I'm sitting in my comfy chair next to the wood stove, hot coffee in hand, cruising Permies on the laptop.
Enjoying one of my favorite wintertime things ...  My window is open an inch or two directly behind me...
Awesome cold clean air coming down from 6000' flows in and creates a perfect little micro-climate at my comfy chair...

Isn't Life grand!

Those pictures look like it is a winter wonderland where you are at.

Wonderland or not, I have just lived in Texas too long so I will just stay here where it was 50 F when we got up and 20 F now and predicted to get to 10 F.  That low changes frequently.

That is a lovely wood store.

Stay warm.

Sounds cozy.. as long as you don’t have to be out for extended periods.

Howdy,

Looks real cozy thomas, nice cook stove...

Now lets get to those winter hydro elec. projects...

DING! DING! DING! DING!!! We HAVE a WINNER!!!
But, oh, Thomas, how I love that stove! The *only* thing about it is change, I'd that my pyro heart wants a glass door, so I can see the fire, lol. If I could handle the cold, I'd so love it there. But, bringing the livestock in, to the table, for meal times probably wouldn't go over, well, at all, with my germophobe hubby, lol.
