If I went in there, there was a small furnace that I could use
I wish someone had told me to stock up on firewood when my fiance and I got to the cabin, but no a single had said a word about the heavy snow coming, and both of us had been seeing the weather channel for the last 2 weeks, hoping both of us would have a pleasant week for skiing and staying in the mountains. The weather man was showing sunny afternoons for the next few afternoons, and fresh snow by the end of the week. Bob and I had plenty of wood to get us through the first night there, and planned on bringing more wood into the place the following afternoon. I didn’t want to go outside at night. Throughout the first night, nearly eighteen inches of fresh snow fell and both of us could not get to the woodpile. Bob and I had barely enough wood to keep the fireplace burning all night long, and now Bob and I had to figure out how to get dry wood for the rest of the week. I called the front desk of the lodge and asked about dry wood. The supervisor told me there was plenty of firewood for the fireplace outside, despite the fact that Bob and I didn’t want to go through a foot and a half of snow to get to it. He told me there was a small closet in the family room. If I went in there, there was a small furnace that I could use. Most people didn’t want to use the furnace, because it added nothing to the rustic ambience of the cabin. He told me where to find the switch to turn the furnace on, and how to adjust the thermostat. Both of us could not get to the woodpile, however Bob and I had heat thanks to the furnace.
