When it gets cold nothing beats the smell/sound warmth of a fireplace.  We burn oak.

Lol, I'm down to knotty chunks of elm and walnut that simply will not split. If it gets any colder, I may start burning furniture.

I've been eye balling a couple of wooden fences up the road.

I used to have 2-1/2 story farm house dated back to 18 something. Firewood was the only feasible fuel to not go broke .

It was fantastic heat.

 

Next place had oil, cast iron baseboard,it was nice ,but it wasn`t wood.

 

 

Now, heat pump :cry4:  :Idontknow: .First five yrs I hated it. Two positives. It makes AC in the summer and my bills are very reasonable. High bill so far was about $210. The next one may set a record.

Natural gas and forced air furnace.   I cut and split a bunch of wood every year, but not a stick of it is used to heat with.

The week before last, we heated the house by opening the windows.  By 2;00 pm, it got too warm, so we had to shut them & turn on the AC.

 

You asked... :)

I was going to suggest switching to used tires as a good after dark fuel source.  And then I noticed the name of the local tire store up there, and didn't want to see anyone wrack up warning points asking if the guy's first name was jack!  :grin:
