I am coming up real soon on birthday number 74 and have long ago given up on the Jim Beam except for special occasions. Heck, it's all I can do to hit that dang steel splitting wedge with the sledge hammer while I'm sober and there is no way I could do it with the help of brother Jim.

My winter electric bill will run 400 to 500 dollars a month with only the heat pumps running. Firing up those stoves and the fire place reduces it to about 175 bucks a month and the house is drier and more comfortable too. I love it when we get snowed in up here on the mountain. I just put the coffee pot on the wood stove, fill it with wood, fire it up, and sit back and read a good book until the weather clears up.
