Wood heat - Yukon Polar
The Yukon Polar, in opposition to the polar vortex - will warm your bones! :D We love the warmth of wood heat and we save tons money heating our plant with cord wood instead of the expensive oil.
Yukon Polar in action.
Warming things up! Our temperatures have dropped and it doesn't look like they're going to go back up any time soon. #woodheat
We're getting a bunch of wet snow and wind. First snow of the season.
For those who are curious to know what is going on inside the fire box of a Husky or Polar multi-fuel furnace - here you go! Our patented Afterburner Jet System in action. This furnace has been modified with a glass door, which is used for emissions test runs and it is the only Husky that has glass on the door - no, so sorry, but you can not buy one with a glass door.
Yukon Polar at Work - literally.
The temperature has finally made it Above Zero @ 8 degrees F! Our shop furnace, which is one of our Polar oil/wood units has been working hard for us the past few days! The radiant heat off the fire door feels really nice :D
First substantial "snow event" made for a beautiful drive through the woods!
Meanwhile on a lake that's pretty much in the middle of nowhere in Northern MN... <3
Beautiful drive through the woods this morning! The leaves are changing pretty fast on these 40 degree mornings.
Noon hour Ant-icks! One ant colony takes over another ant colony in our parking lot. The science of ant colony social structure at work here in Palisade, MN.
A whole bunch of babies having some fun on beautiful Gull Lake!
Heating it up with a Yukon Husky! Check out the Husky in action :D
Beautiful hoarfrost on the trees for the last couple mornings :) Enjoy the ride!!
You know it is getting to the end of a busy week when you call two beautiful swans geese. Lol.
Morning drive in winter wonderland!!
Have you got your Yukon serviced and ready to fire it up?
Shown here - fire in the Yukon Polar - oil/wood furnace!
S.N.O.W. - There you have it folks! October 3rd is pretty early for this.
Another drive through the forest - 2 weeks later! The reds and oranges are just beautiful mixed in with the greens!
Autumn is falling upon us already in North Central MN!
4 minute ride through the forest. :)
A little ride out on the Great River Road between Crosby and Palisade - pretty nice dirt road and very pretty country!
Beautiful native american Indian paint brushes and daisies growing in the lawn here at Yukon! Our Toro mower is broke down and we now see what is really growing there other than grass! :) Love it!
Another drive through the woods - it is amazing how much the trees fill in in one week :)
Well, our grass is finally greening up and the buds are blooming on the young trees! 5 minute ride through the woods! Kind of bad video shoot, but wanted to share a little part of spring in northern MN :)
Same thunderstorm, just a few minutes later on the ride home from work. Caught an awesome lightning strike - forward to about 1:21. Sorry for the blurriness on this video :(
Our first thunderstorm in North Central MN! Although it was pretty chilly out, it was a storm without snow, non the less!
The challenges of driving to work! You can always count on the deer to ultimately run in front of the car.
Small footage of the drive into work this morning - in the snow of course - and through the woods of course! TGIF!
Beautiful morning in the neighborhood - Brainerd Lakes area Minnesnowta.
