Well like Zach, We heat totally with wood. A wood boiler hooked to radient underfloor heat, a domestic hot water heat exchanger (40gal), and a suspended unit heater in my shop. Also have an airtight fireplace in the center of the house that we run when temp. and wind are where they are now. We have an unlimited supply of wood, close by. It costs me about $150.00 for fuel, bar oil etc. for the saws, splitter and the old Chebby woodgetter. I have worn out a couple of saws in my lifetime, and did by a new one, last spring. The Husky 357 was getting too heavy. I still use it for blocking though. The house is zoned and there are circulator pumps and combustian fans on the boiler and fireplace, so I suspect It costs about $10 bucks a month for the electric to run them. I am retired and enjoy being in the woods and cutting wood, so I don't place a value on my time. We burn about 10 cord of wood each year and haven't used any heating oil in 3 years. Loren, the Acg. PS, The wife and I stopped in to Lowes, yesterday, to pick up some things, and saw that they had firewood bundles for sale, @ $9.97 each. Wow! It would take 3 of those bundles to fill my boiler once for a 12hr burn. No one could afford to heat with wood at that price.

In the rural area he grew up in, the highlight of the week was Saturday when many people took a break from their work to go to town. It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer.
