Heat Wave in NH

Today we're having a heat wave:  25' when we took our afternoon walk. I didn't wear gloves and never felt the cold until after about a half hour I tried to follow Big Dog as he ploughed through the nearly 3 feet of snow. Big mistake. Fell, feet got stuck in the deep snow, had to use my hands to push myself out. Whew! What penetrating cold. How do they do it, these animals? Including the squirrel. And here below is our connection to the outside world. We do appreciate him. He never lets us down.

Winter Magic

The morning sun in the treetops and marshmallow fluff on the roof, high enough to keep the casement windows from opening. It's winter magic.

Heavy Snow in the New Hampshire Woods

Not too cold-6'.  Great for chasing sticks but a bit difficuolt finding them when they sink beneath the snow.  A beautiful walk in the woods, fingers crossed we don't have a power failure like the nine day outage our house had last month, New Hampshire's worst ice storm. Some people were out longer. Aside from a generator failure with carbon monoxide probems,  the young people helped us out so it was still a wonderful world. 

Ice Fishing

Big Dog and I walk out to say hello but today with the wind chill, it's way below zero so I think we'll wait until tomorrow because on the wind swept lake it's even colder although big dog doesn't seem to notice.  Well stick to the woods and hope the falling branches miss us.  

Winter is Here

Under the ever watchful eye of Big dog, the generator is filled with gas to enable us to survive the worst power failure in New Hampshire history, and then the happy return of the repaired snow blower just in time for the expected 12 inch snowfall.
