    It snowed all danged day long yesterday! Lucky the temp is right around freezing because when the stuff lands, it either compacts or turns back to water.

    Must be close to 10" now. I'm resisting putting the plow back on the truck. I think mother nature is gonna win this one though!

    32/65 furnace is lit.

    40/73 got home from work and the wife said she saw all kinds of weather today. Rain, snow, freezing rain/ice and sunshine. I have some ash and locust going. I carried a little of other species up to mix with locust. I've found the stove burns locust much better mixed in.

    Two days ago we hit 90. Today only got to the mid 50's. With weather like this I'd like to get another cord of wood CSS. Those of you with snow in May, gosh I'm sorry!

    Rain gauge was over 2.75" at my house.

    More rain today. Calling for a high of 50. No fire right now but stove at the ready for after work.

    The UP of MI is not to everybody's liking but that is fine for most yoopers. One definitely has to enjoy winters and they can actually be very nice and also beautiful. The low population is another plus! I still love it.

    It's the lack of people that does it for me. But, there's still way too many. :handshake:
