Good morning!!!!

good morning all.
30 out now, radar says still snowing but can't see it yet, think it's mostly frozen sleet.
Which means that one inch crust out there is going to be a bear to get rid of.

Going to have something to eat and head out to join the whirring, buzzing, beeping noises of snow removal.
And in my case the occasional one inch gravel rock sucked up, makes quite a bang but have skids all the way up.

Family in CA and VA and friends in DE and FL already have gotten their shots, asking me what is problem with Bucks Co. ?.....

bet those birds will welcome me out there this morning.

Good morning! 23 now, allegedly getting to 30 today. Got some more snow over night, will see how much once it get light outside. Forecast is for some cold weather beginning of next week.

Cleared snow again yesterday. No mechanical issues. Hands are sore this morning tho from 2 days in a row of clearing snow.

How was the pizza BEF?

See what today brings. Certain I will find something to get to

Stay safe out there

Good Morning
30 outside high of 34, and it’s still snowing. I’m guessing at least 16” so far. It’s over 3 feet outside my back door, but that’s a drift.

I’ve got to go out and clear a path to the barn or get my wife snowshoes. I’m thinking I’ll clear the path.

This storm has pretty much been the focus of all of my energy, but not necessarily in a bad way. I find the time on the tractor quite peaceful. Not sure if it would be the same without the heated cab though. I hope Drew’s alpaca socks are keeping his feet warm.

It’s time for me to get moving and adding to adding to the cacophony that Drew mentioned, although the snow absorbs most of the noise.

Still radio silence on vaccination.

Positive note gate will be fixed tomorrow and tractor time this afternoon

"Thomas does Mrs like driving in snow?"

Day light hours doesn't bother her but night time different story.

yesterday I had the dubious distinction of being first one out there to clear off the snow.
This morning as it just starts to lighten up outside, and I see it snowing out there, in much less of a hurry
to go get wet and cold.

But...reminded of my alpaca socks waiting for me, I'll put them on. The wool socks I wore yesterday had shrunk some,
so when you take them off, looks like your foot had been squeezed down a quarter inch. One area where synthetics outperform natural fiber, they don't shrink.
Of course I wash everything in hot water and fully dry them. I might be cooking them in the dryer. I know to not put the alpacas in there but maybe I should let the wool
socks dry out naturally too. I need a sock tree...

time to get a move on. Very light snow coming down.

Morning All;
Looks like the eastern PA area got the most of the snow.
So far up here we have only gotten around 3" but it's hard to tell from all the drifting.
Went out and brushed off my wifes car, she has headed to work now.
I turned on the block heater for the tractor and will start plowing a bit in an hour.
Then get headed out.

mostly_ if I had some dry sacked sand I would have loaded that, but I have 4 tons of sacked coal on pallets as that is my "supplemental " heat source.

Looking4new "audiology clinic closer to you than VT? Or is it that you don't like driving in NYC" this is part of a VA disability claim when the paper work was filled out they threw every
ailment in the book at the claim form. This audiology clinic in VT is much closer then NYC as well as not caring to drive in NYC especially with them getting a good bit of snow. It's just shy of 200 miles from my area to NYC. They are claiming because of covid most clinics are not seeing new patients, it has been over a year getting this appointment. I've driven quite a bit in stormy weather and my truck is set up better then most vehicles.

Best wishes to all today,
stay safe and try to enjoy

Lou

well audiologist just called to cancel my appointment, we will see how long before the next one gets scheduled.
