    Heavy fog like yesterday, and temps are -9 C or 15 F. Poplar in the reactor. Should get above freezing later on.

    37ºF now. snow flurries and the sun almost came out for a minute and the slush all melted, gone, back to the snow leftover from the last storm.
    just reloaded with red oak and it will be a bit too warm in here in not too much more time.
    Town crew is out picking up branches along the street and chipping them. They took the ones with snow piled up on top of them but not the ones I stacked up nicely for them. :picard:

    Ah ha! We're finally back into the 40's here and sunny. However, although it was nice working in the woods, I quit a bit early so I could maybe prune a few more raspberries. Wow! Once I got into the open I about froze. We've had a NE wind for at least a week now but it changed today into a NW wind and it is a raw one. I did not get many berries pruned... Decided to quit early. Besides, I have a meeting to go to tonight.

    This morning my stove is chomping through oak pallet boards, yew stumps, and the bottom dregs of the woodshed. I've got more good stuff, but I want to burn up the oddballs. One I get one side of the shed empty, it's moving time.

    Dog decided I was stretched out too comfy on the couch, and jumped up and lay on my legs. Too bad he's 95 lb so here I am. Sitting at -4 c or 25 f, and winds 18-20 mph. Poplar idling along.

    I have been debating on taking off the extension cord that I have figure 8ed on the front bumper of my van. Guess I'll leave it be for a bit yet.

    Sitting at -5 C feels -13 C, or 23 F feels 9 F. Winds are 20 gusting to 28 mph, and waiting for the snow to hit.

    Have I ever mentioned I'll be happy if it ever warms up here... It is sunny but that's about all the good I can say about the weather right now.

    They say we hit that yesterday but it felt colder than a couple days previously when the temperature was barely above freezing. That cold wind really bit into you. Not sure if I'll make it out to do much today. It's a bit of a hurting day here.

    That's too bad. Can't force it, though. And you can't fight wind. Lucky here, it's calm.
