As I stepped out my front door this is what I saw this morning ...
Then it got heavier ...
Tiki not looking so tropical ...
Everything is white!

I was out fortifying my huts a bit more to keep mine as dry as I could before I wrap with plastic in a few weeks. Interesting that as I'm watching tonight outside temps are in the 30's but in my hut in the middle of all my Christmas lights it's showing a pretty consistent 44 degrees. And the huts are still open air yet.

Tim,
A child's delight is the only good thing about it...
showing a pretty consistent 44 degrees
Above freezing, save your electricity. 😉

If you drink, don't drive. Don't even putt.

I've been making sure my thermocubes are working before the full wrap when I won't be able to see much. Gotta remember this is my first year wintering so it's all new to me. 🙂

DISLIKE(the snow) Windmills do look cool with a dusting of snow on them though.

Looks like the beginning of our snow in Ct. 2 weeks ago. I Guess thats it for this year's growing season! At least you won't lose your power for a week!!!
