First Winter Fire In the Fireplace

It’s been getting kind of chilly around these parts lately. The days are very nice, but the nights have been getting cold. I think we may have broken the freezing mark last night. I did see a bit of frost on the lawn this morning.

What does this mean? It means that I get to start making fires in the fireplace again. Albeit they are very inefficient fires that make the rest of the house very cold, but the romantic side is worth it. I just have to remember to let the fire go out around 9PM. If it doesn’t, any warmth in the house gets sucked right out the chimney overnight. That’s not good.

Here is a nice picture of our first fire in the fireplace for the season.
