Yup. We had a couple of severe windstorms come through and there were lots of trees down - I stocked up on firewood. We have a fireplace, but it's not really efficient, so I don't use it much, but good to have. In a pinch I can use dutch ovens in the fireplace to cook with. And you'd be amazed at what a solar oven can do. Needless to say, you learn to be a little colder - and nice quilts sure do help!
