Bring one over and install it. I'll call you when to come after it.

Me? No, I stayed on my hill. I let the chicks out of the run so they could roam. Let the roo's out of their cage so they could be in the run. Unloaded my truck from yesterday. Started a fire in the pit. Got a cold Keystone Ice. Attacked by roo while rebuilding cage. Set mouse traps in coop. Fed the fire, got another Stone. Put the roo's up, reset traps. Repaired storage compartment on kayak. Fed the fire, sent Clayton a text, got another Stone. Carried feed and water to the coop. Removed some ties from tomato stakes, half 5 gallon bucket. Fed the fire, put chicks up, reset traps, think I need rat traps. Another Stone and sit on a bucket by the fire for a few.

Well the electric bill came and it seems that it's more expensive to heat only the room you're in, than the whole house with the 240 volt heat pump system we have. Those stupid little heaters are not very efficient.

Do you have a concrete slab floor? If so you have get those heaters off the floor. As it soaks up all the heat. We run one in the bedroom. And does not make any difference in our bill. But I do use the Pellet Furnace to heat the house.

Full interview conducted on the front porch over a glass of sweet tea. Once we hit the quota, no more until room allows!

Hope you got an opening in about 4 years for the Mrs. and I.

Regarding Heaters, we used to heat only with propane till about 2004 and converted to a bio mass heater for our primary heat. Cost to heat or home has been cut in half. We use corn, wood pellets, cherry pits, barley or oats......When temperatures get in the single and negative digits we use just corn. It seems to burn better as temps get cold.

Yep, Slab's on a slab. That's all they got down here in Florida. If you dig a basement here, all you get is a swimming pool I guess! doh

Well, after running space heaters for a month or so I finally got my electric bill.

I’ll post my “Go Fund Me” page shortly.

There is a portable propane heater, uses a 5 gallon bottle, and it is a much better solution than the electric space heaters. Has 3 burners so you can choose low, medium and high. Just running on pilot helps a lot.
