Title: Dark riding smells
Post by: Stig / Major Tom on January 14, 2021, 12:07:44 PM
Fingers too cold to do this...
But I prefer wood burning stoves/fire-places to those wood pellet stoves!
Pellets make me wonder if they are cooking rodents.
ok, got that off my chest

Loved those wood burners on the way here.

Smells aren't always pleasant, dead skunk comes to mind along with cattle feed lot.  I have no idea what the cooking of dead rodent smells like.  We have people who burn wood in their fireplace so on a calm day you smell that in the neighborhood. 

In a car you tend to be somewhat isolated from smells and sounds of the country.

"In a car you tend to be somewhat isolated from smells and sounds of the country." 

One of the main arguments in favour of motorcycling / scootering IMO.

I've had beaver, and woodchuck, both, taste like chicken and didn't smell any different while cooking.

I have a FHA wood furnace, and a FHA oil, wood used to provide most of my heat, but getting older, that 5cords of wood/0 gallons of oil has become 1 cord wood/300gals oil

but more people in my neighborhood, burn wood, than don't, getting to be more outdoor furnaces as well
