My New Crackling Fireplace from Farm and Fleeet

Okay, it doesn't crackle, but it does heat up the living room and the dining room a bit and it looks really pretty. It wasn't cheap but it was either put $260 into the oil tank and wait another week before the oil company decides to come here (because as previously stated you have to WAIT until you DRIVE over to their place and give them cash because they are RUDE to their customers even when you're a GOOD customer with credit WAITING to be SPENT there) or get a heater that is efficient, looks nice, and keeps my kids warm.

Hmm...I wonder what I should do.

Anyway, it's a lovely machine. As soon as I get the room setup how I want to be setup I will take a picture. It's quite comforting to look at and if I can ever find one of those candles that smell like a fireplace and have the crackling wooden wicks then I would love to put it on the mantel.

I bought it at Farm and Fleet in Chippewa Falls and I have to say the customer service there was great. The guy who loaded it for me had a lot of patience while we attempted to put it in my Mazda MX-6. ha ha A dear friend of mine let me borrow her van and I went back to pick it up.

You know what is funny, I always thought Farm and Fleet had just farming supplies and feed. I had no idea they had designer name clothes. I found Vans and supposedly there is Liz Claiborne there too. I will have to go back when I have some money to spend and have some fun shopping. :)

We all know that I'm not a hunter and I proved it when I went to get my fireplace. I was looking at this really tall thing that looked to me like a ski lift or some winter work equipment. It didn't dawn on me until I went into Gordy's Hardware Hank (is it still hardware hank?) and found something similar in the hunting section. Duh!

The fireplace looks a lot like the one pictured below, but it is a smaller model.
