Dewey was looking through last week's Advertiser paper and came across an ad for an antique wood stove. I figured, being 3 days late, if it was worth anything at all, it was gone, but I called. They still had it, I went Friday to look at it, then Dewey went after work.
Here's what we have -- now this isn't actually my stove, but it's what ours looks like. I don't have a camera to take a photo and upload it. The difference between this one and ours is my oven door is solid...no dial or wording on it, just clean porcelain. I found this one on EBay...
My stove is in better condition than this as far as rust. My stove is still very black and pretty looking, well maintained, though a good coat of stove black would shine it up and make it prettier I'm sure. I can fit my 9x13 pan in the oven box, as well as 2 loaf pans, so I'm good to go. We're getting the stove pipe this week and hopefully will have it up and running this weekend. It's going on the front porch, pipe and all, for the summer, then it will move inside. The local hardware store doesn't sell triple-walled stove pipe, so we have to go to Home Depot and such to get what we need.
Ok...so now all I need is to learn how to bake in this beauty!!! Start sharing thoughts and tips for me before I begin burning everything

Oh, Deanna, it is wonderful. I would love to have that in an outdoor kitchen. It would be perfect. It looks a lot like mine that I got from my dad last year. Only yours is much bigger.
Blessings,

What an awesome find. My grandmother always had a wood burning stove right next to the electric stove in her kitchen! What an awesome summer kitchen you'll have.

No indulgences of self will can be trivial, no denial unprofitable; Heaven or Hell depends on this alone. A parent who studies to subdue it in his child works together with God in the renewing and saving of their soul. The parent who indulges it does the devil's work, makes religion impractical, salvation unattainable, and does all that in him lies to damn his child, soul and body, forever.
Susanna Wesley

We are a Christian family desiring to raise our children with the primary focus of Training their Hearts!
I have no greater joy, than to hear my children walk in truth... III John 1:4
Train up the child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it... Proverbs 22:6
Oh, that their hearts would be inclined to fear me and keep all my commands always, so that it might go well with them and their children forever!... Deuteronomy 5:29
Our mission in life is not to go to some far-off foreign land, but to work at home and in our churches and home communities. Our goal should not be to leave behind riches and possessions, farms and homes for our children, but a priceless heritage they will cherish enough to work fervently to pass along to their children. It has been done for generations and with God's help it can still be done. In teaching our children, we are striving toward a deep understanding of who they are In Christ. I am . . . a child of God, a gift to my parents and my country. I'm a person of great value because God made me. I can . . . do all things through Christ who strengthens me. God has made me able to do everything required of me. I ought . . . to do my duty to obey God, to submit to my parents and everyone in authority over me, to be of service to others, and to keep myself healthy with proper food and rest so my body is ready to serve. I will . . . resolve to keep a watch over my thoughts and choose what's right even if it's not what I want.
