8" of fresh powder today. And 6 degrees F tonight. [View all]

The lightest and most delightful snow you can imagine. Cleared approx 700 sf of decking/stairs, Then cleared the solar panels. Fed the birds and the deer. It was actual nice to enjoy the day here without a lot of wind. Although the driveway wasn't plowed, no problems with my 4wd truck to get needed supplies (wine, smokes). In spite of the current cold, comfortably warm, unlike too many fellow Americans.

Merry Christmas to all that retain the spirit.
