Hamish, the only part of the post and picture I like is the beer didn't freeze. It's been raining for a couple days, snow is mostly gone except piles from the plows. I was cleaning up my splitting area yesterday when I found a little clump of snow under some cut offs. I jumped on it and squished it up till it ran off with the rest of the rain water. I'm about tired of the white stuff, Joe.Ottawa Valley, got some more cedar off the swamps, then it was off to cleanup some dead oaks and maples on the shore of the lake. 3' of snow and 3' of ice, and my beer didn't freeze, lovin it!
I haven't shovelled snow in near a month and a half, I couldn't be happier. Its not serious snow, just snow. Flooding happens sometime, hence why we keep the good stuff on higher ground. After supper me and my boy are going to build another snowman and fort to ward off the evil powers of mud season.Hamish...You fellers have some serious snow.
One of the VT USGS hydrologists was on local news the other day and said that the snow pack statewide was 2-3 feet. Then he warned of a serious potential of widespread flooding if we get a quick thaw. 5 - 10" of water in existing snow pack.
Another day in paradise, and my beer didn't freeze!
