    Freezing rain right now. Cellah Dwellah has been running quite a bit today. Enough heat comes up that the baby Harman hasn't run but a couple of time but that will change over the next couple of days.

    Had some slush and freezing rain last night, mostly drizzle today. High temp I've seen is 32.7. Low teens tomorrow night followed by 4-6 inches of white chit. Winter is here.

    What sucks is the ground isn't frozen so if the guy plowing isn't careful, there goes the lawn. That happened to me last year when my son's plow was broken.

    I usually have to spend hours getting the gravel off the lawn in the spring. Not to mention patching up the scalps. Wouldn't mind skipping that chore next spring!!

    The Endless Autumn is over :(:( much colder here today , some freezing junk on tap for tonight a bit of a warm up Wed/ Thurs but colder air starting to move in for the new year I would say that the stoves will be running every day now . The p43 is off now I may have to give it a quick clean after I get back from a Smoothie run :whistle:.

    Snow plow mess is an annual affair.

    We planted all areas that border the plow zone with thickets of local annuals that are "mulched" with natural stone and gravel. Looks nice and is plow residue proof. Any minor scrapes are simply raked over in a matter of moments

    I actually had to fire the stove, and I was really getting used to the warm temps! Oh well I guess I became spoiled with the recent temps!

    Was outside doing final pickup before work this a.m., ground turned from wet to hard freeze in the span of 24 hours. Stove will be operating a lot more here also.
