I picked this up a weeks ago and got it all hooked up yesterday just in time for cold February. And the big one is heading to Chris Cades farm.

Those are sweet Eddie. However I certainly get a chuckle when I here someone in Florida say COLD! I thought a "wood stove" in Florida would be like trying to sell ice to the Eskimos.

Two nice wood stoves, Eddie. Good score. That one for Chris will turn his cabin into an over. He'll have to keep the doors and windows open.  ;D

I was thinking the same thing Keenan.  I could probably make better use of it Eddie :)  Although we've been having a fairly mild winter so far... other than one week of temps dipping to -36 ºC (That's -32.8 ºF, which felt like -50 ºF with the wind!)

February in Florida is T-shirt weather for a Canadian!

I new I'd get a chuckle out of all y'all Tourist :D. It does get cold here, freezing is considered cold ::). If leaves start to fall off the orange and oak trees, it is cold. If my newly planted green beans and radishes get frost bitten and my papayas fall, it is cold. ;D

 We had a cold front come through Friday but I'm outside spalling rock with a t-shirt on, thinking about going hunting this afternoon, season doesn't end till Feb 19.

 Pat, that's what I told Chris. We had one smaller than that on my old lease that would run you out of a 3 bedroom Shanty. But, I couldn't pass it up for $60.

Wow, those look to be in great shape.  I'd sure like to score one down here for my shop too.  Cold seems to be relative it seems.

     Actually it does get cold down here.  It is a damp cold, and you really feel it.  Except for two times I have been colder down here, than when I was hunting in Montana.  I have had Friends from up state New York, come down, and one of those little nasty cold fronts come down, and they were ready to go back to NY to get warm!  They said that they would laugh when the weather station showed People in Florida wearing big heavy coats with 35 and 40 degree weather, but that they won't laugh any more!  In Montana it was 40 degrees one day, and I was down town, drinking a huckle berry milkshake, wearing a Pocket T shirt, and it was comfortable.  Not here!  It is a bone chilling damp cold.  It is not often, or for very long, but when it is here it is COLD! :o  Don't let them Brow Beat you Eddie, abide them, for......"They knoweth not of which they speaketh" ;) ;D  I have seen those stoves, and they are some kind of nice, plus made in the good ol US of A !  I would love to have the big one in my shop in Montana, instead of that money burning big propane heater, I have suspended atop my bedroom/bath there.  Eddie does find the deals, although the other deal finder on here did awesome also, with those tools!

Really cool Eddie.  I'm backing the damn right it can be cold in Florida team and would sure want one in my shop if it were detached from the house.  Course it's easier to get cold when you've got a shaved head and you REFUSE to take your flip flops off unless your at work!  I don't ever want to give up my flip flop factor!
