I received a total of .47” by 10 pm last night. It is still drizzling up here this am, and I may have gotten another few hundredths by now. Love the smell and the feel and the freshness. Son reports that Plaskett is quite slippery. All that dust is now a slippery clay mud.

Got my second wood stove in and completely finished the chimney installation last night. This one is close to my bedroom, near my “command post” so will really help this winter. Solid as a rock. My first stove pipe is a piece of crap. Now that we know how to do it, will redo like the second one. The outside chimney installation is still good, but the inside needs redoing.

Now, I need to work on my wood pile. Hate to keep too much around during fire season.
