Well, we here in SW PA are getting hammered right now 50-60 mph winds.  Snow flying sideways and temp is dropping like a rock.  Was 40 today now down to 18.  Dont know how much snow we are to get.  We got over a foot last fri eve and it just all melted so we get more. mistake.gif I spent the day getting my house plumbed for my outdoor furnace that is coming this week finally.  Cant afford to pay 3.39 a gal for fuel oil.coyote2.gif  Will work on getting my shops plumbed this week.  We ahev about 50 acres with nothing but trees on it so I have all the firewood I need for as long as I live. After that I will energy independant as far as heat goes.  Which translates to about $1200 a month.woohoo.gif  Next thing I am going to do is get one of those outfits so you can make your own biodiesel.  My wife works at a restaurant and they pay to get rid of their used veg oil.  I will take it from them for free and make my own fuel for about a buck a gallon.  Then I could tell opec and the others to pound sand.Thumbsup3.gif
