Fireplace

This morning when I came downstairs at 5:30 A.M., it finally felt like fall. Porque Choppe broke the land speed record for going potty outdoors, did a U-turn, and shot back up the porch steps and into the house. I turned on the fireplace in the dining room for the first time since last winter. That was my best home-improvement idea to date, gas fireplaces. It's not exactly cold, so no point in turning on the furnace, but it wasn't comfortable either, so the fireplace was just right.
