Our power went out on Thursday night at 5pm and came back last night at 11pm. Just in time. Thank God for the wood stove.  happy77

Indeed.  Wood stoves are wonderful!  If we were to ever live up north again, I wouldn't be without one.

Live in  harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.
