Wilderness Techie

I'm a tech guy. Computers mostly, web design, programming, etc. I've even tried my hand at raytracing. I live with my family on a 120 acre farm in south Missouri with any number of chickens, a horse, two ponies, 5 dogs, 29 cats, a few ginueas, about 80 goats or so and some Kikos, a bourke parakeet, 2 budgeragars, 2 lovebirds and 5 cockatiels. Oh, and about 25 head of cattle too; forgot about those. lol :)

Heat

We have a wood stove.
Last year we didnt

Last year we used the central heating which runs on propane and it cost us $1000 for the whole year.

It broke this year so we arent using it but heating the house with the wood stove. Also for the office we use a small oil heater which runs on electric.

The price of propane has doubled this year. We went through 2 tanks of propane last year and it wasent a cold winter. This year is much colder than last so we would probably use more than 2 tanks. At the current price of propane we are saving at least $2500 by using the wood stove.
I would say thats worth cutting wood and using a little more electric, dont you think?
