First Fire of the Season!

I have a wood burning stove in my house, it looks like a true antique, but I'm not sure how old it really is. This morning I was sitting here typing away and my hands were freezing. The temperature on the bottom of my computer screen said 55 degrees. If Wolf reads this, she will probably laugh at me thinking it is freezing at this temperature! So I built the first fire of the season in my wood stove. It's nice and warm in here now! Of course now it says it is 63 degrees outside. My stove is really neat. It even has two caps on top for cooking! Last winter I heated some water on it for coffee one morning when the electricity was out! I've never actually cooked food, though. Someday I may try that. It probably would be fun, pretending to live in the pioneer days. I need to drag out a cast iron skillet! This year when I lit my first fire, I didn't even set off the smoke alarms! I did last year, though.
