    I don't like bagged potting soil for just that reason, it's at least 50% wood chips. I buy pro-mix instead, and mix in composted leaves. I don't use as much as I used to, lost interest in gardening once I started hoarding wood!

    9 under . poplar in the stove .
    The Copper Basin 300 Sled Dog race starts this morning here in Glennallen. Nice moderate temps and plenty of snow. Lakes and most rivers are froze over. So it should be a good trail. But they were calling for 12" of snow tonight.

    16 now, supposed to bottom out at 0 overnight. This time yesterday it was 60. Some pretty flakes falling, just enough to mix in with the freezing slush so that it doesn't turn into a skating rink. Was nice to save wood for a couple days - now winter has returned!

    The thaw was well timed. Roofs are clear, and log pile is no longer snow bound. Might be able to get some work done Sunday and Monday, which is my weekend this week.

    Just stuffed the box to the top and loaded up. We are going to the company Christmas party so I want it warm when we get home.

    Oak, Ash and walnut mixed in there tonight!

    Our temp are echoing Canadian border VT's temps. Fell asleep to rain, woke up to heavy sleet, then snow. We'll see -17°F tonight, perfect timing after cleaning both the pellet and woodstove.
