Firewood stacked and ready !

Due to the colder winter than expected, had to refresh wood stock yesterday, hardly able to get out of bed today, ooooouch !!!

Some in my area have $700.00 power bill, heat pumps only. :-( poor soles.

We pay nine cents per kilowatt which is cheap compared to other areas. This about to change beginning in April, our power Co. is starting what they call “peak usage” which will raise rate to twenty seven cent per kilowatt. In summer from four PM to twelve mid-night is considered peak usage. I told my wife we would live in the basement in the summer and upstairs in the winter, LOL !

As O-bam-ass promised, your power rates are going to rise.
Kill all the Coal burning power producers and build no Nuclear Power Plants. Wind and Sun isn’t isn’t going to get it done. Will Americans ever get enough of this crap????

I moved half a pickup load up by the house this morning from the storage stack near the lake front. This looks to be some of my very old firewood, full of dust and a few live spiders. I made sure to slam each piece on the gravel to bump off the critters. I hate to use insecticide but may have to...
