Subject: Re: New Ken Burns series on PBS
Oh nuts. I saw they were running the first ep, over and over, last night. But I got sidetracked and didn't see it.

We’re at cabin up north, where blessedly we have no tv.

Will catch it next week at home.

Today, Tim came with a load of firewood and dumped it in the garage. I’ll stack it later. A face cord and a half. Folks who heat their homes with it up here will burn 6 times that amount in a season. But we’re up here on average about a week and a half a month, and only light a fire in the fireplace in the evenings. Five years ago we installed a high efficiency wood burning fireplace insert with blower. It throws off tons of heat, and there’s nothing nicer than lighting a fire and sitting on the couch with a book when the temperature outside hovers around zero.

Our dog loves it too. She even lets us on the couch with her.

Life is good.

Mike, if you’re reading- headed on a short road trip to Grayling tomorrow.

Peace,
Bill Z
