I remember one line where he finished his fireplace and finally closed in the cabin, stoked the fire up and got the inside temp up to a "toasty 40F degrees".

How many would consider 40F a toasty, or acceptable inside temp?

If my gas bill keeps going up I'm going to be forced to accept 4 degrees Celsius as acceptable.

Anyone else done anything similar to Proenneke MB? More interested in books rather than video. I've been through the Daniel Boone books, and a couple of others (names forgotten at present) - but anything frontier like would be ideal. Book stores here aren't much use, just get funny looks from the 17 year olds behind the counter who try and palm me off with the new book about Atticus Finch...
