    I know! Still startles me sometimes, well that and the flipped gazebo inches from the sliding glass door window and door. It feels like sand dunes or standing in the valley of a dirt bike track. Weird winter.

    I am Sooo thankful that I built my house in the back corner of my lot. Unless it blows hard from the East . We don't get any drifting at the house.
    The trees protect from all other directions. But. I do Need a loader !
    Currently.
    -12°F ambient temperature
    5 knot easterly breeze.

    I might get the saw going today! Most of the snow is finally gone. There is still wood frozen in but it should not cause a problem. Had company yesterday else I'd have gone to work on it then. Still had a good time.
