You are, especially considering the alternative.

Chuck, sorry to hear this. I hope Trish has a mild case, is over quickly, and can get down with you soon. Thoughts and prayers.

Wish I'd had better choices when I moved here.

Should've taken the photo before most of the snow was off the truck.


Nobody has been back there, the rabbits have been busy building highways. Predicted 40-50mph wind gusts, never got more than a moderate breeze, would have been some big drifts with that kind of wind and powder snow.


Icicles are from last week, won't form with these temps.

T'was a misery out there today, 10-15 minutes and even with my snowmobile mitts and extra glove liners my fingers started hurting. Snowmobile used a whole tank of gas for that little driveway because it spent so much time idling while I swapped cold gloves for warm, cleaned the fog off my glasses (wore my bike googles to start, but moisture from your eyes will fog those eventually, too), and wipe my nose that decided this was a good day to drip constantly. About half way through I came in for an hour warmup break and coffee. Doesn't seem like that long ago I could do this in one go. Never have spent much time out below zero, though, I could never have an outside job in weather like this.

Evening Woodsnitzes. Chilly here at 13° and we expect the low around 8°. It’ll be in the upper 50’s this weekend.
