You're going to see a lot of me this weekend

The fam and I were just at my kids soccer game 10 mins from our house. Took us 3 hours to get home. 1.5 hours of drive time and and hour and a half to eat subs in the middle. It was he first time I have ever experienced a true white out. I could not see any of the road. Not even an inch in front of us. I was perty scared for a few mins.

I was actually felling a 14" pine when that blizzard hit. I had to quit in the middle of the back cut and come back later to finish. Now, if I'd have had a better saw, maybe I wouldn't have to suffer so much. No cutting tomorrow. Lows every night this week are near zero, sometimes below.

Yeah, 5deg and supposed to go up to 10, then -7 tonight. Been blowing like crazy all night. The water line to the pump at the barn froze up, so now I'll have to haul buckets from the house. Gonna have to shovel what drifted last night, but it's not too much and I'm going to wait until the wind dies down some. The generator is ready, but I'm really hoping the power stays on - I'm good with modern conveniences for today.

There are a couple of saw projects I'd love to work on today, but my shop is in an unheated barn. Not happening.

If something comes down it'll probably get cut with the Earthquake - it's the only one presently set up for carb heat.

Well, assuming I can find where the roof for the duck house is, I will be attempting to path that back together. I didn't build it, we inherited it with the ducks. The lady who had them built it after her husband began to suffer from one of those degenerating neuro - muscular diseases, and while I give her much credit it's kinda sketchy. I had reinforced a little though.

The wind was, let's say, very crisp when I fed the birds this morning.

I fixed the duck house and hauled the water and cleared the cars, plus a few other projects. Now I need to go shovel even though the wind has not stopped. Sure is hard to get motivated to go back out.
