Flashback Friday: Winter Preparations
• Make an appointment to have your chimney cleaned and inspected.
• Split and stack firewood. Gather and stockpile kindling. If an unsplittable log remains, use it as a Yule log.
• Remove window boxes, scrub them with a solution of water and bleach, and store for next year.
• Clean woodstove glass with a rag dampened with white vinegar.
• Apply stove black on a warm day so that you can open the doors and windows until the oily smell burns off.
• Remove window screens and wash the windows. Check the conditions of storm windows and wash, if necessary.
