    Teddy can’t wait to go outside! When is this month going to end?

    I thought this was pretty cool. It’s 29 degrees outside: the snow we got last night has mostly melted except in the shadow of my house and sap barrel.

    I've been known to just stand at the door and stare outside too.

    I do it all the time from foliage until the leaves come back. I can see well into the woods right now, so I look for activity. Once the trees leaf out it's just a wall of green at the edge of the yard.

    I just want to be done with indoor burning, and switch to outdoor burning. I have several piles of tree tops to get rid of. Soon enough we'll be out there at the fire with a delicious beverage feeding the skeeters.

    I'm well into burning 2018-2019 firewood. Down a cord and a half already. I was out cutting firewood yesterday and realized that it was snowing. Got another dusting but hopefully that's the end of it. Supposed to be 70 here by Saturday.
