I have to admit it is certainly one way to stay warm. It does make me wonder though, just how much firewood this guy has to carry! Let's just hope he never has a wreck!

Wood burns in a stove as Pascal Prokop drives his 1990 Volvo 240 station wagon during cold winter weather on a road near the town of Mettmenstetten, south of Zurich on Thursday, Feb. 9.
Prokob built and installed the wood-fired stove himself and got an operating permit from the Swiss technical inspection authority.
And you thought old Volvo station wagons weren't hot...
Hey...I guess we all need a hobby, right?
Coffee in the kitchen this morning. The rain last night got the patio all wet!
