    Hovering around thirty here. Pine and a little red maple keeping the inside toasty.

    Got a few inches of sloppy snow over the last couple days because I took off the plow expecting rain. Mounted it back up last night, only turns to the right.. No raise, no left angle.. Wtf.. Messed with it a little bit in the dark before giving up.

    Stopped at the apartments to hand shovel on the way home from work, used daylight to mess with plow again. Back in the saddle. The three pin connector was getting bad xontact, bent the pins out and greased everything, seems to be ok now. Knock wood. Got my buddy up the road cleaned up (heart condition, no shoveling. Teenage son has a broken foot. Ruh roh) and most of the home place as well. Will finish up in the morning.

    Mmmmmmm pork!

    We're having pork chops with maple syrup balsamic vinegar reduction sauce, caramelized butternut squash, and homemade applesauce.

    I'm drooling already. I'll wear a bib to work tomorrow.

    Well, it's colder than a well digger's hiney in January today. Put in another load of those white oak boards last night, had a nice bed of coals this morning. Added a few shorty rounds of oak now. Oh yeah, I remembered bto speed up the blower last night.

    35ºF outside. Red maple this morning.
    It's warmer here than in Country life, Georgia and Tallahassee, Florida so far this morning. Might even see some sun today.
