I've always thought upstate NY was very pretty. Driven through it many times during my trucking life.

My wife grew up on a 250 acre farm just south of Lindley, NY right at the PA state line. When they moved in they lived in a 150 year old farm house. The well was centered in the kitchen floor! They'd slide a lid off and drop a pail for water. No heat except for a kerosene heater. They had a partial basement and would bring in a few cows in the winter. She remembers getting up at 4am and feeding the animals, and in the winter going to the creek and breaking the ice with a sledge hammer to water the cattle. They built a modern home later.

My inlaws now live further north... 45 minutes north of Syracuse 2 miles off Lake Ontario. They get heavy snows, but nothing like they'd get at their cabin in Redfield on the Salmon Lake Reservoir. 14' deep at times! Esp in the Jan-Feb time frame when the lake shore moved west as it froze, bringing the lake effect snow west to the cabin.

They had a 1906 Atlantic Queen cook stove in the cabin to heat it. When they finally sold the property the cabin was going to be destroyed so the buyer could build a modern McMansion on the property. They were going to leave that stove, but we couldn't part with it... too many fond memories. So we dismantled it and carried in the bed of my 2005 Ford Ranger all the way back to central NC.

I rebuilt that cast iron stove and it sits proudly in our living room, all 600lbs of it.

This is a picture of it in the cabin where it lived for 30 years. Prior to that my father in law and my wife (she was 10-12 at the time) found it in pieces in a yard and purchased it. Brought it home to Lindley and had it rebuilt by the same foundry that cast and built it 1906. It then sat unused in a barn for 10 years before being moved to the cabin.

And refurbished to near new condition. It been here now for 20+ years.
Was built by Portland Stove Foundry in Maine. The chrome accents are actually nickel plated cast iron.

The foundry filed for bankruptcy in 1979 after being in business for 102 years. The President of the company stated. “It's the cheap Taiwanese wood stove imports that are hitting us. What can you do when a stove from Taiwan arrives on the dock here for $38?”

Using one of these puppies gives real meaning to "cooking over a hot stove." They take a long time to cool down.
