The Fireplace


A while back we'd started looking into the fireplaces. We wanted to know what needed to be done to them to make them usable and compare cost with gas inserts or log sets. Turns out the only one not needing a small fortune to make usable is the one in the carriage house. When we called the insert folks they wanted dimensions. When my wife got to the dimensions of the carriage house fireplace, they paused and said, "Are you sure you measured that right?"

"Yes."

"Now that would be about as wide as you are tall, miss. Are you sure you measured right?"

"Yes, and it is about as tall as me."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes."

"Ummm, we don't have anything that size..."
