Always do needles when were out west. I'll have do dig the pictures out from the old computer but from 2003 to now there is a remarkable change to Crazy Horse.

That's the same temp they are calling for in my county seat. I'm surprised your temps won't be lower. It may get colder here. It usually does when it is still out. No wood burning here yet. I turned on the living room baseboard this morning since there was rain called for along with the cold front. My bedroom window is open. My room will be good and cool by morning

What kind?

We just got a new one from TSC because our old one was falling apart. Not sure yet whether I like it. We looked at a much more expensive brand but they said it was so efficient that it probably wouldn't work with our chimney.

I wish I could have bought a brand new one of the same make/model as our 30+ year old stove.

Drolet ht3000 . Had a Dutchwest (Vermont casting) prior . I will never go back to an old style stove. Warmer in the house less wood and super clean flue every time I clean it this one I close down and there is no smoke going put the chimney. The fire burns above the wood burns off the smoke and creasote

Okay, well that's similar to our new one except bigger. It's got the air tubes and baffle up above and burns the smoke like that. I just haven't gotten used to it yet.

Our old one had a thermostat draft and you could shut it all the way down but it would open up later on as the stove cooled off. By the end of last winter/spring it had so many holes that the draft wasn't controlling much anymore.

Nice way to vacation. They said if you flew there then you wouldn't have a way to get around and you said "Yes, Yukon". (Ah jeez, I really should just stop trying). Anyway, how did it XLR8? No, really. I bet that thing drove nice! You took the classic American "Out West" vacation like back when that was in a Caprice Estate Wagon driving on the 2-lanes. Most likely the whole way out and back!

:lol: I am sure I will leave out some stuff, but we
flew into Rapid City SD, Did Rushmore at night
(Lighting ceremony) Then next day did Needles,
Crazy Horse, and some other scenic drives also,
plus visited Sturgis. Then drove to Devil's Tower,
and up into Montana to Little Big Horn. Then next
day it was Beartooth Highway into Yellowstone (E
GATE) across upper loop, to (W GATE) ID. Next
day Old Faithful and rest of the loop. Next day
down to Victor (Laid~Back Clothing) over into
Jackson and Jackson Hole, up into Tetons, and
back through park to Old Faithful again, over
into ID. Next day across park and out (Central
Gate) over to Cody, and across WY to Buffalo
and through another scenic drive to Deadwood.
Next day went to Cemetery there then over to
Rushmore during the daytime, then went to
Missle thingy near Badlands, then all through
Badlands, back to Rapid City, SD. Flew home.

You hit a lot of stuff, pretty far and wide. I'd say you got your gas money's worth. I wondered of you got over into Idaho. My sister is in Targhee, ID. Just had a birthday yesterday.
