Free in my back yard
Firewood
I'm in the new house which has well water (softener and carbon filtered) and a propane gas cooking stove. A few weeks ago I started using the humidifier 24/7 as our humidity was dipping below 40%. After the humidifier was on a day we noticed the gas stove flame was no longer blue but orange. After much investigation (and initial CO worries) it turns out it's the minerals in our well water that is causing the orange flame. Who knew? So we now run the humidifier over night and keep it off during the day. A balmy 26o this morning on the Eastern Shore.

'that would have initially freaked me out Tony - glad that;s what's causing it - would never have thought
.............even if you're old and gray."
"Well, it's alright.
............you still got something to say."

Our initial google search revealed it might be a CO issue which was very concerning and then digging deeper we found out about the hard water in the humidifier.
Yep
We just got home and I loaded it up ?
Went to Hurricanes in Manorville for beer and wings
Will post updated pic in a few ?

new place staying warm?
Nice having a new tight house although I did turn the heat on till the fire got good and going again this morning. Yesterday I walked the dogs in shorts and today hat, gloves and scarf.
