I was much younger then and in my first marriage, My second marriage brought me another wood stove but we had a good furnace also.
Yeah, I only have wood heat and no other heat source.......... I built this house myself and I live deep in the woods and so I figured that I have plenty of wood and trees to burn (which I have).... But like yourself, I was also younger then............ If I could do it over again I would have built this house to also provide alternative heat in addition to the wood.
