@OneFineAcre My husband the fire marshal wants to make sure that you have a carbon monoxide detector in your house.

I've had the opportunity to use those propane heaters and they throw off a great amount of heat, but like was mentioned, I'd be concerned about carbon monoxide indoors... I used them camping/hunting. Had to be exceptionally careful with it used inside the tent... fire hazard for sure.

Well, my son and his family left ~5am this morning hoping to arrive back home ~10-11pm tonight (their time). Was really great having them all here and I'm excited at the prospect of them moving to TX next summer. The grand kids had a blast being able to go out and run around the pastures and shoot bows and arrows and the guns. The oldest got a Browning BL22 from me and he loved it. Gave my son a marlin 795 .22. My son and the boys all helped with cutting/splitting firewood from the downed tree I've been working on and cleaning up the scrap branches and hauling them into the woods. Really had a nice visit. So now I can get back to "normal" for me...

Very heavy overcast right now and they may have to drive quite a way in rain. Supposed to rain all day today and tomorrow and into Sunday and Monday as well. Had hoped to go cut more firewood, but at least it's not supposed to be cold along with wet. Forecasting mid 70s for Christmas day. Debating taking out a turkey to cook for myself... Haven't decided yet.

Hope everyone has there Christmas fixins all taken care of by now and are ready to enjoy the holiday weekend. Merry Christmas all!

What happened to all the great eats we were going to vicariously!!!!

I can't win! Some want to hear about the great eats, and others say they don't because they get hungry or want to lose weight or whatnot... What's a fat guy supposed to do?

Spoiler: Food entry below!

We did have very thick ribeyes grilled to perfection for dinner last night...

Glad you enjoyed family and had a great time. I know you were delighted to show them your new place. What did they think about it? And have you convinced DDIL to come off her Houston fixation? Dallas is so much closer if she just has that big city hankering.

We're going to my sister's for Christmas for the family gathering. A neighbor will care for our animals and place. He really watches out for us as does several other neighbors. We are really blessed in that area.
