WHATEVER IT TAKES!

THE COLDEST, SNOWIEST, ICIEST, LONGEST WINTER IN DECADES

OK, OK, WHATEVER IT TAKES!

Monday,  9:30 AM.  37 degrrees F, wind from the NNE at ground level, with clouds moving in from the WSW at higher elevation.  The sky is mostly cloudy and overcast.  The humidity is trending up, now at 83%, and the barometer down, currently at 29.86".  It's a tossup as to whether it will rain or snow today, it all depends on the temperature.  

   Andy and Judy are back in camp, trying to get maple trees tapped to start sugarin', but the snow is almost overwhelming.  I am combating ice dams on the roof and worrying about where the runoff will go when all the snow finally melts.   There are reports from ice fishermen that in some places there is five feet of  hard, clear ice.  And I have no idea when we will start planting trees. Or when the daffodils will bloom.  It is the coldest, snowiest, longest winter in decades, if not longer.  And all the while the propaganda about stopping Global Warming continues.
   O.K., O.K., whatever it takes!.  I'll sign up,  if  they can guarantee  it will stop snowing!
