Well time to put stuff away for winter. 4400lb of wood pellets for the pellet stove came today. I have to get half of that in the bunker today.
I saw a BFL yesterday. It was red on a black car by door 30 in Waukesha |
This will last me through a normal winter. Last winter I had almost a pallet left over. I have been buying pellets from the same guy for about 6yrs now and the price is usually good. I did not compare this year but have every year in the past and he was always good price wise. I had them delivered this year. That was kind of pricey I thought but it is nice having them put where you want them instead of trying to muscle the pallets on grass with out the right tools. I will have to move 2200lb by hand in to the bunker though. I already have one pallet put away in the garage. The hard part starts now. My back will be feeling it latter today and tomorrow

| Our House is about the same size as yours the stove is a free standing stove in the family room down stairs. It dose ok in October and November when it starts getting chilly out. It was installed when we bought the house. I would have put it upstairs in the living room if I had installed it. In the first part of fall and early winter a 40lb bag will last 2+ days in full winter I go through a bag a day. The big thing is that it keeps the floors warm so it has to help with the heating of the rest of the house just from that. Final tally I moved 85 40lb bags to day. |
