Lake Champlain Wampum

The IceHouse has lived up to its name! Came home from work last night to find Barry and the Bannermans standing around our Empire heater which had been taken pretty much apart. It stopped working late in the afternoon. The B's contacted the appropriate repair man who came about 7:30 and worked until 9:45 to no avail. Found a couple of problems and one he was able to fix with a part he had in his truck. The second problem will require a part that hopefully will be available this morning at the supply store in Rutland. Barry had a wonderful fire all laid in the fireplace and so we lit that and had a cozy evening. Plenty warm overnight and the bathroom has a little electric heater which makes that room nice for shower taking. I am off to Manchester again today where it will be nice and warm. If BJT shows up on your doorstep invite him in to get warm!
