We'll, been using it for a week or two now. Absolutely love it. Beautiful flame, very very warm, clean and easy to use...on/off switch and control temp. And it really does keep the room warm. Uses a lot of pellets but I reckon the winter will cost 3 man for the winter. Easily worth it not just for the what but the pleasure.

It is at Rusutsu, anyway.

Try some NOT at a skijo.

snowjunky. that goes without saying....

I say poor, but I mean good!

Beautiful morning here in Minakami. Last of the colours I suspect with poor weather forecast this week.

2 smiles in a year is surely pushing it.

Not. Long. Now. He says wearily

Sarcasm doesn't go down too well either though does it.

And what's for tea?

We have this every year don't we? I put in my mind mid December as a starting point. Anything else is a bonus.

Almost a chill in the air today.

You should wait to see if Tokyo wins the Olympics first, just to be sure.
