Dang, dark for you at 4 o'clock by the end of the month, 6 hours not much daylight.
Takes me 2 hours to get out of first gear

 

I was watching dirty jobs the other day and they were on location at a reindeer farm in Palmer

 

Yea
A few farmers here have reindeer (domestic caribou)
I drive by it on the way to the cutting area.
Over by the Matanuska River, Glenn Highway just N out of Palmer

 

The owner said he sells them all over the lower 48

 

Reindeer sausage too, made in Anchorage
Gourmet Sausages

 

I could get used to that.

 

Sounds good to me, looks good too, I used to buy a sausage stick from a guy at work every week, elk, moose, Buffalo, never had any reindeer

 

Thanks
Starting to build snow pack up there now, changing all the time.
Will have to get some more local mt pics when I'm out & about.

 

by the way
12° right now,

Gonna set the stove for a little more heat output tonight.

 

if I ever come and visit you it will be in the summer

 

Nice pics Dave, I must stare at them to long because I can see the wind snakes in the snow running from the shadow to go hide in the stacks…..

 

Talk about making a guy feel unworthy. Now I have a total inferiority complex. Must cut more wood, must cut more wood,...... AHHHHH

 

bogydave ---Always a pleasure viewing your pics, like looking at a piece of art...very, very impressive work and stacks of course---stay warm my friend

 

Cold here, since midnight, 8° was our high temp.
2° now.

Forecast to get colder

 

Not looking forward to that, Dave.
Prepared for it, but not looking forward to it.
