From behind my computer your firewood looks to be a little green. That coyote won't bother you. I can't say the same for your little dog. A nice 22mag would do him some good.

They said the wood had been down about a year.
Is that still considered green?
It also got wet.....oops.
I'm researching coyotes and it says there has not been a reported human attack in MO. That's a good thing!
My little dog heads for the door when she hears them start yapping, she no dummy.

yes a light would be a great addition... and since you have power out there to the boiler now .. doenst the boiler have a light on it ? I thought most usually do?
If not you could get one of those florescent wall lights they dont use much electricity and give off plenty of light.

Yes, there is a light on the front of the stove.....but I have to walk all the way out there to turn it on.....it only comes on when I've switched the blower switch to off.
Plus it only lights up the 'front' area of the stove.....not the back or around it (where the wild animals come from...lol)
Also, even tho the light is 'in the front' I can not seen INTO the stove when I'm loading it. I'm pretty much loading blind hoping I'm stacking the wood in there right where it needs to go. I do tend to stick my gloved hand in there to feel 'where' it needs to be but that does get a bit hot and I have long hair.....leaning into the mouth of the stove to 'feel around' is probably not a good idea.

I was wondering how I was going to run a light out there (from the garage) but now that you mentioned my electric that is already on the stove that makes it easier to figure out. But only if I can figure out a way to run the electric line out from the back of the stove....the back door closes so the pump and hoses are not exposed to the weather. I don't think it's 'airtight' back there so maybe there will be a way.
I'll just pack until hubby gets home and make him do the light......:biggrinbounce2:

sink a 4x4 post on the front and put a motion sensing light on it... when you walk out there .. it will come on or put in a post light and maybe a couple of flood lights on back?

personally--id take the coyotes out--your dog and them wont mix--theyll kill him if they get a chance--and--coyotes will attack humans--its just that mo aint reported one yet--and wont--as most dnr are lib types--i/e. it didnt happen!!!!! dnr in iowa said we dont have bobcats either--yet there are dead one found every so often--shoot those coyotes--as they are endangering your life--know how fast they can cover ground at speed???????

Any oak in Missouri that has been cut and split a year will be loosing a lot of bark. Looks like all your pieces still have bark on them. I split some oak the other day that was cut over the summer and left to lay. The bark was falling off of it. I'm sure it will work fine for you though.

I have one of those led head lights I wear when I load my Heatmor, it works great! Lets you see right back in the fire box.

Glad the Heatmor isn't damaged.

Great Pics

Make sure you take the coyotes out, they WILL kill your pets and WILL attack any small children in the area. Get a 22-250 with a scope at minimum. Have a great time with the OWB....good for you!

That Bell & Gossett pump is top of the line IMO. It was worth it.

Thank you for saying so.......I was still worried about over-paying on that thing!

You have a receptacle on the back of that Heatmor so you could plug a light into that....you could run the wiring either under like where your plumbing is running under or just pop a hole in the outside tin you might even be able to still close the door with the wiring running out of it....

Your pump does look big, I wonder which one you have....my pump is about half that size....

Nice to see another Heatmor owner here

About my comment for burning green wood, I didn't say it can't be done, of course you can burn green wood, I was saying someone SUGGESTING that you should ALWAYS burn green wood is an idiot
