    Right around 50. Heading for today's high of 44. Yeah, you read that right!

    Winds finally died down and rain moved out.

    Back to winter temps and conditions beginning tomorrow with 1/2 foot predicted.

    I think it hit 70 yesterday, but will today and tomorrow. It was nice to see the sunshine!
    Had a fire yesterday morning of small oak splits.
    Tons of migrating geese last few days, which is a wonderful sight, because frankly, Im done with this winter.

    Not supposed to be windy today; just 25-30 mph, but in 60's. This won't last long, but the cold spells usually get shorter and shorter. Instead of weeks it should only be a few days before warming again. Of course, there are exceptions.

    22 and snowing that will end sometime tomorrow afternoon-maybe. :smoke:

    It was another windy day yesterday. Helped evaporate a lot of the melting that was going on with the upper 40 temps and sun we were blessed with.

    Even much of the driveway melted the ice pack off that was there since last Thanksgiving. Almost 4 full months of it!

    Almost hit 80 today. A month and a half ago it was -9.
    Had the windows open in the house this afternoon- beautiful. But I did bring in another wood rack full, because we're sure to get another smattering of cold nights.
    I brushed off and vacuumed the catalyst, and then ran the brush through the chimney pipe. Fluffy black flakes, but not much.
    Pretty decent Tuesday as far as Tuesdays go.

    85 and sunny here. Just transplanted my garden from seed starting trays to solo cups. I usually put them in the ground around April 15th. I might shoot for a week or two earlier this year. Depending on long range forecast.

    Yesterday was a good day but this morning it has started to snow. It is sticking on grassy surfaces but not on the roads. This will not last long.

    Had a couple days out of town for work. Oak back in the wood burner. Getting close to the end of the wood stack. We’ve gone through 17.5/19 totes of wood.
