Houston - we have LIFT OFF!!!




Pellet stove is IN! Finally and just in time for the cooler weather! Two fellows from Energy Options came over and had it installed in under 4 hours. It's up and running and keeping the kitchen nice and toasty. The kitchen was always a cold room - and the bedroom over the kitchen was cold too. Kris now reports that his room is quite warm and we have been able to turn off the baseboard heaters. We'll see how it goes..... It's a nice little unit - I'm quite impressed with it so far.


Tomorrow we're putting the Mustang away for the winter. We secured a spot in the Renfrew Armouries for it - only $150 for the season - a very good deal! Only problem is it has to go in this weekend and we can't get it out until May 1st. But, to be honest we don't take it out much in November and only once or twice have we driven it in April. And the fact that the storage is so cheap and that we can free up half our garage makes it worth it. We have to show up at 10:00 - hopefully it won't take too long to get it tucked in.


Then later in the afternoon we're popping into Ottawa to take Jamie and Julie out for Chinese food. We plan to meet at meet at Gow's in Bells Corners. It's not very fancy, but we quite like their food and we LOVE their open-ended eggrolls! We'll bring home an extra dozen eggrolls for Rick and Kris to snack on.


Thats about it - real estate continues to be busy enough for this time of year - bit of a flurry of activity on land at the moment and we have several vacant properties. And Sunday morning we're showing a house near Douglas.


today's picture is our pellet stove - ta-da!!!
