Kevin Standlee: Fandom Is My Way of Life

The weather forecast shows temperatures will stay above freezing with highs up to around +15°C for the next several days. I therefore will take a small risk and let the fire go out. This will be the first time we've let the fire die completely since I think early November, other than when we did the two-night trip to Sacramento. We'll see if we can keep the living room comfortable only with the electric heat. If it works out, we can stretch our supply of firewood, given that we don't expect to be able to buy any more until maybe September or October.

This will also give me a chance to clean out the fireplace, which is easier when it's cold because I'm not having to dig hot ashes.
