We came home relatively late, but as the forecast says it will be -28°C by morning, I set fire to the fireplace anyway. At 23:59 surface of the heat-retaining fireplace has just started to get warm.

just delighted to be back in albuquerque after a few years away for this year's grateful dead scholars' caucus at SWPACA, but already missing the hotel blue & its weird but undeniably cozy heat-optional electric fireplaces.

Whoever named the fireplace was either on top of their game or just fucking tired of naming things.

I am simple minded - in that I am often simply blown away at the intelligence that went into the design of some common objects.
Today I'm working with T-Posts, a kind of steel fencing post. They seem simple, but they are well designed to hold fencing and to support things like firing range targets.
And some years back I designed and built a craftsman/arts-and-crafts fireplace. I used over 300 tiles of various sizes. It is really cool how those tiles are sized to fit togeth…

Our sunroom is well insulated but unheated. Normal temperature is around 17°C, unless we turn on the gas fireplace when we are sitting back there.

The strategic placement of the bird feeder right outside his window doesn't hurt.
