Wife and I put a couple hundred miles on the dakota today with a ride up in north Alabama .
A little red truck took up with us and followed us to the house.
It seems real sweet , I think we will let it stay here.

Wayne, for as many of those Dodges that follow you home, you should open up a humane society and place them with loving woodgas families.

Looks good Jim 
Thanks Wayne, IT is as good as I could find around here but nothing like the ones south or west. The rust is there but just has not crept past the fender flairs yet. I wasn,t really looking but stumbled on it and was cheep enough needing repairs to 4x4 ,trans , motor and tires. All but tires was low or no cost. I carried a fire tube in the shop but have not started on it yet want to get my big one done first.

Here’s a history of where the most and largest wood stoves came from. Their ornamental and patented designs had a good reason. The Henry Ford Museum has at least a hundred of them in every configuration.

This old Glenwood came with a house my folks bought in 1961. I heated with it for a while in the early 70s. The box stove side plate that says Norway I dug up at the site of and old steam mill way up in the woods.
We’ve been heating 100% wood for about 40 years. Love my Jotul F400 Castine.

Hey Jim, nice to see you on here again.
Now that we are moved up north, I would like to pay you a visit when you have time.
That would be great Bill. I been wanting to call but lost my phone splitting wood, found it a few days latter under the snow in the path of the ax. New one uses a different sim and all contacts lost. I am free most all the time, just puttering and tinkering. Give me a call. I’ll even send you home with a load of firewood Truck is coming along but I tend to overthink things and make them harder than they really have to be.
