Smoked a butt for the company that was supposed to be here but canceled, win/win situation. No heat pump usage today at all. Fireplace has kept this place hotter than usual. I have a raised pond outside, about 400 gallons, and just keep the pump on circulating that water. Starting to look pretty cool and the pipe which is totally exposed to the elements is flowing free and clear, can see the silhouette of the fish occasionally.
