    It was a Warm Morning coal stove I remember. It lived up to it's name, for one room LOL.

    Cheers, Steve

    Remember, the Geezer is old enough to remember no central heating and Base Burners:
    Coal Stoves, Base Burners
    And... to have dressed under the covers to stay warm while the wood burning kitchen stove heated up for breakfast. I stayed with friends that were using such devices into the late 50's. Selling insurance, door to door, I found folks doing it in the late 70's.
    YMMV!

    You have been fortunate then. Saw -42ºF / -41ºC one winter
    There is nothing quite so cold as pier watch at Treasure Island in winter. San Francisco at its worst.

    I lived in a big rock house right at snow level for a few years. Only had a pot belly stove for heat. Had to keep it stoked and warm or would be peeing ice cycles in the morning. No 2 day trips in the winter or would come back to a disaster. Frozen water pipes is a bummer. I really miss that place though.

    Point....Anything in the house would freeze if it could.

    Being raised in both Northern and southern Michigan, having traveled around the world, I can say I love the bite of a frozen winters morning with a hot cup of coffee and a warm room behind me. The air is never cleaner or more refreshing as it is when the temp. is sub freezing.
