wood stove 101

Today it is me and the chickens, a goat and the lonely cow. Oh, I am learning how to use the wood stove too. If I don't, well, it will get chilly. I COULD turn on the thermostat, but where is the fun in that?? So far the fire has not gone out and I have not filled the house with smoke or set off the smoke alarm. 

The cow IS lonely. He stands at the fence nearest the house and just looks, or occasionally bellows. Poor cow. His two comrades went to the butchers on Tuesday. They will return in lots and lots of white packages some time next week. The lonely cow has no clue he has been spared, he does not understand.
