our forecast for the coming week has a few evenings down into the teenies again.

staple gun...

so, you're saying you're a bit of a hothead? :)

oh wow, those poor folks in the Rockies could sure use a massive atmospheric river right now to get those reservoirs refilled again both Lake Powell and Lake Mead are very low (and the snowpack this year is so far not very good either).

"You raise me up"...

they got us down for snow this weekend and it is snowing now but supposed to change to rain through the day and then back to snow this evening. the worst is due this weekend with up to 5 inches in the forecast but i'd say it is a roll of the dice as to how much we'll actually get...

this is not unusual for this time of year this far north. we can have frosts into May.

water was over the road that night and through the morning. this seems to happen every few years. a very bad design for the drain they have installed which comes under the road at the corner and then runs under (yes, that's how it is designed) another ditch which has washed away all the dirt...

we see a lot of deer along the roads here but they keep making plenty more...

snow is back in our forecast... rains the other night put water over the road. i guess we're done with the drought now for a few weeks...

a bit too gamey for me...

glad to say no rocks here, but there seems to be a very compacted layer of sand which seems to be almost sandstone in one area of the property. luckily i have no plans on gardening there any time soon (it's shaded at the moment by a leaning large white pine tree that might fall over any time so...

i don't use one of those here but i do have a D handle garden spade (square blade) which does a good job at trenching but unfortunately this heavy clay soil we have makes it a challenge for these shovels to last very long if i try to pry up too large of chunks when it is getting too dry out...

plenty of rain and hail last night, no damage that i know of but it is still dark out there. some larger hail than i've heard in a long time so i was curious how big the chunks might have been but i couldn't really tell last night when i tried to look out the patio door or the garage. it did...

i did that the other day. need to do it again. i'm stuck at the moment with a few things so won't manage it for today but it looks pretty nice out there! 64F fair and breezy is the report. for back exercise digging/shovelling is much better than walking - gardening season will be here soon...

it sure is a good way to find out if you are really compatible with someone is to take off in the middle of winter for a trip across the country. we didn't have chains for the tires in some passes where it would have been a good idea and we had to stop in the park visitor center at the Grand...

i really need the exercise and we've not had much at all the past month. :(

if ye are not bonded by now... :)

hmmm... :)

door not latched and gust of wind...
