Sweet Sweet Heat

 
It's gonna get cold outside. We can't stop that. We can stop it from getting cold inside.  We have light. We have a toilet. Now all we need is a little heat. 
 
Hello new furnace. Right now it looks more like arms and legs should pop out and it will transform into a robot. 
 
 
 
 
Walt Kowalski looked at the forecast for the weekend and decided the last nice days before winter were slipping away quickly. Nobody wants to be drilling holes in the side in the rain, snow, and cold. He did that at the Cat Ranch when he installed the flue for our new furnace. The thought of that night still makes us laugh.  He spent hours - hours - outside in the rain and cold, wearing my old hooded, yellow rain jacket, drilling holes through the brick and concrete. 
 
It looks very scary in the photos I take in the basement.  It really isn't as bad as it looks.  Nothing a good sweeping, a little white paint and some 60-watt light blubs won't fix.
