Wood Burning Stove

This past weekend we installed a wood burning stove in our home. It was just in time for a lot of cold and snow. Actually it was just in time for a bizarre heat wave and then a blizzard.
We began by trying to compromise on the tile layout ideas Here we are installing the chimney on the roof (after shoveling it). I am distracted by my urge to sneak over to the neighbors to paint their garage doors. It took two days to install and was much more complicated than I thought it would be. Luckily we have very handy family members Annie helps to make some kindling

yea! It is not only pretty but it heats up the back of our house which is always very cold.
The stove is a Quadrafire Yosemite which has a nice old fashioned look that goes well in our 1880's house.
