Wood stoves

We have a wood stove in our house, and it is a very nice thing to have around. First of all, it gives off a lot of heat even on the coldest of nights. Once it was like 20 below zero, but our woodstove kept our house at about 85 degrees, and I was sweating. Second it is environmental friendly. We never have to use any propane to heat our house. We only use natural resources; wood. Third, it is cost efficent. As the price of fuel goes up (down a little right now) it is harder to afford all that fuel. We get all our wood for free, all we have to do, is go out into the woods and cut down a dead tree (a lot more than one tree though) and stack the wood for the winter. Alos it is great exersice chooping wood and hauling it. I'm glad we have a wood stove rather than a heater.
