Indeed The Krink has become one with the firestove for the next 4-months.
It works out great as I got this routine of going out for smokes and return
with a piece of firewood and make another cocktail and watch TV for almost
an hour and repeat the process as long as I can stay awake. Notice this
Artic Air means starting the fire around the Evening News hour. Up until
then the house was warm until 9pm or so. Artic air uses up your wood
supply a little quicker but right now I got wood until late April or beyond
so I'm burning about 4 more pieces a day when its below freezing out.
My many lifetimes on earth and I'm still burning wood to stay warm...
guess you can say its a "time proven way" to stay warm.
