    Sounds good! Fortunately we have lost our snow and we should be near the end of freezing temps soon.

    33/66 heading to 53 and sunny today. We will get some nice solar gain this afternoon. I just started a fire, one chunk of box elder, one chunk of maple, part of a paper grocery bag, a couple handfuls of splitter chips and a few "sticks". Sticks might be from a tree we cut or just from walking the yard before mowing last year. I'll let this burn down for a bit and then I have another piece of maple and what looks like small branches from a box elder. December 2022 I had three trees topped here, one maple and two boxelders. I paid for drop and no haul. Then, with some help from my brother, I sawed them all up. My Wife, Sons (2), Daughter in-law and Brother helped at various time durning that winter with stacking as I ran the splitter. Many of you have already heard that story but too bad, lol. you can hear it again.

    We had a warm summer night. Was still 60 at 7:00 and forecast for the high in 50's today.

    The temp dropped 7 degrees in the last hour.

    Good news-snow didn't stick!

    Sitting right at freezing this morning.

    Also forgot to mention that as of yesterday, all rooves were completely snow free! :rootintootin:

    They had been close before but never made it all the way.

    Good morning from Beautiful Muskoka Ontario! It’s a pleasant morning 5c/40f heading up to about 13c/55f, overcast, pink in the east, rain coming in about 10am, I’ve got 3 birch trees, damaged by the ice storm a few weeks ago to take down for a customer, hopefully get them down quick before the rain, not a big deal to clean them up if it only drizzle, we will see. Have a Beautiful day!

    All the snow I got the other day has already disappeared. It was gone completely the very next day.

    35 now, gonna hit the 60's after some morning rain. I think I'll use the LP furnace for a little bit this morning. :D
