Staying toasty warm

Last weekend we had a new wood burning stove installed. M went back and forth for weeks researching the pros and cons of catalytic vs. a more tradition set-up. After a handful of visits to a local dealer, we finally decided on an Osburn 2000.

The grumpy old fella ...

Chimney sweeping with subsequent belaying from a pine stump during the install ... this guy was awesome! 

And now ... the new Osburn! Isn't she pretty? Probably our best new-home purchase to date.
