A quick trip

It was a quick trip this time.

Mostly, we wanted to install this electric furnace in our garage to protect the pipes. Gerald had found a source for a nearly new Coleman vent-free electric furnace he thought would be perfect for the garage. Apparently they were taken out of houses on one of the Indian reservations where they weren't being used for some reason. The price was right at $130.

We hooked it up, but the air it was blowing didn't seem terribly warm. Gerald figured a filter would help. That it might slow down the air as it passed over the coils giving it time to heat up.

Meanwhile, we had J.C. hook up some ceiling fans on the ridge beam to recirculate warm air back down.











The recent rains had left the driveway on the north side a bog. For a while, it looked like J.C. wouldn't get out. He had to back all the way down the driveway.










Here's the sun warming the barn after a chilly night.
