    I just want to say thank you for petting your cats on camera, I really hate watching videos and people ignoring their pets while they're talking. and your cats are so adorable we want to pet them, so you're actually petting them for us. so once again thank you.

I would go buy a large cooler and put batteries in the cooler in the winter to reduce freezing issues with the batteries.

    Howdy Jenna,
    That's about how much snow we had fall in southern Ohio a few days ago. First time I had to shovel this season. I don't care for snow either, except on Christmas and maybe New Year's. Ramsey didn't seem to mind you going out and cleaning the solar panels and splitting the firewood. He was so nice and courteous, he let you sweep up all his cat hair with your new sweeper too. Well the arctic blast is coming to an end and tomorrow it's getting above freezing. We're supposed to get a lot of rain later in the week. I'll take rain over snow and ice any day. Hope your wood holds out and your diesel heater keeps running. Stay warm and think spring and good fishing weather.
    Take care, Steve.

Not a big fan of the cold winds... snow I can deal with but the freezing winds.. "NOT!" Ha. Stay warm you guys. Keep the cool videos coming. 😊 I just bought my mom one of those wood stove like yours. Working out pretty well. Warms up her home pretty good. She lives up north in Cuba,NM. They get more snow up there. Gotta stock up on firewood for her. She loves the cedar wood getter, heats up better.. I think. She 89 years young. Always gotta keep on eye on her. Checking up on her.

    Hi Jenna, i'm a new subsriber of your channel when CZcams suggested it to me. Now i can bingewatch all of your video's :-)
    Maybe already mentioned this tip, but for the hot ashes, if you can place them in a metal box (cookie box etc...) with a lid that is firmly closed (to prevent odor),
    then you can place this box on a tile near your bed and get free heat from it. This can also be done with a metal bin filled with sand, that gets heated up by placing it on top of your stove or next to it. It takes a while before the heat gets to the sand in the center of the bin, but after that, the sand will hold the heat for a certain amount of time.
    That's free at the end and costs no extra fuel. Also if you have a gas cooking furnace, you can place a Terracotta flower pot upside down over the flame, this will radiate some decent heat. Greetz from Belgium

    Nice setup... // Seeing for the first time- snow on solar panels... I was wondering if they make solar panels that contain heat coils in them? If not, maybe you can jerry-rig something? Or even this: relocate the panels by putting them right above where the wood stove is inside. Obviously this would have to happen when it is warmer out.
