Moved into a house last June. It's been really nice to have a yard and the extra space that house style living provides. The couple that lived here before us said they never used the furnace to heat the house. They burned wood in the great wood stove that is in the living room. I've been burning wood to heat the house this last week. Fire's are nice and chopping wood is fun. I like wielding an axe, gathering the splintered wood, carrying it inside and lighting it on fire. It might snow here this week.
