I would have thought that every house up there would have a fireplace.

Nope, most of the time they are just a huge heat loss in the winter. May put a gas insert in when we build a new house.

My BIL has a wood burning insert that has a fan on it. That thing can heat most of his whole house. We have a fireplace in the burleson house that has not been used in about 15 years.

It is very relaxing to me to sit and watch a fire burn down late at night.

I love fireplaces but we just did not have the floor space or the money in the budget when I we did the house.

Went and got all the detailing stuff this morning, got home and it looks like rain now.

I went and got some pics of the truck. Will get some better ones once it's clean.

I was mistaken, put the chrome back on.

The chrome looks like furnace pipe now! It curled up as soon as I took it off. Must be hiding it's ugly face.
