Wow. I wish we were at $52!! January is usually the worst month for us at about $150 or so. We use a heat pump too. Maybe it's the size of the house... but it's 2650 sq ft, not huge.

BTW, I used to live in Front Royal. I attended college for a year there and also lived up on Blue Mountain (about ten miles north of the town) for my first two years of high school. Wonderful area!!
