    Dipped back into the 20s last night. Threw on a fire on at bed time and when I woke up. Ash/elm as I'm out of shoulder wood.

    I think this is my 6th "last fire" :)

    Temps are dropping and heading for single digits tonight. Snow is backing up and taking a breath at the moment. 4-5" so far with another amount to match that on the way. The advisory has been upgraded to a warning. Winds will show up also. 30-40 mph gusts.
    Good thing it is real snow and not the heavy wet stuff.

    Our snow melted over the last couple days, but we are not even close to cutting the grass for weeks.

    8 this morning and ended up with 10" (or so) over the last day.
    I fired up the snow blower yesterday for the driveway and gave a little extra wide cut with it so the bare ground would melt quicker for the robins......
    Yeah, it does help!

    We had 19 this morning with about two inches of snow, we'll burn Cherry today and for the overnight burn we'll mix in some Ironwood.

    Tonight our temp should be lower than last night, 9 or 10 degrees.

    I never post to this thread, but just realized we're burning more oak on April 9 than we did on Feb 9. Overcast with rain (started as snow) has kept the sun from warming us. Temp up to 44 now. Wind picking up too.
    And yes, I pushed the old lawnboy around last week.

    Still loping along on some white oak and locust from this morning. 26º out and 76º in. Probably put about 3 small splits in to carry us to bed time. I wish I had a little cherry or silver maple close but most everything close is 92 octane. I'll make it somehow.
