Tried to clear enough snow for Audrey to get the car up to the garage tomorrow, but the big snowplow pile at the bottom was too wet for the blower, just clogged immediately. With more shovel work than I intended I got a walking path from the street to the garage. And barely got in the recliner with a cuppa when she texted and said no kid tomorrow, the single boy that hadn't gotten sick was throwing up and she'd keep them home tomorrow. Oh well, got some exercise and get more rest tomorrow.

I sure hope the forecast is right this time, another week and supposed to have temps in the 60's. As soon as the snow melts and the ground isn't soggy I start building more raised beds for the veggies, the one I tried last summer convinced me that's the only way for an old fart to garden. All I have to do is shovel dirt to fill them. I'll put a bunch of tree stumps and cuttings in them that will reduce the amount of dirt needed by quite a bit, that'll help.

I think I touched my shovel once this year. And that was because it was in the way

I have to move two beds and add a third. Not looking forward to anything after a 5 k marathon walked most of it but jogged the rest with these mutts. This is Mary before I took the reigns.

We shot -9 today which was not good enough. I got the Wheel Dock mounts attached to the trailer deck and should be ready to roll. I am whipped after all that drilling and wrenching but I don't think it was nearly as tough as changing out leaf springs. I bet I sleep good tonight.
