This morning I headed out to the compost pile, it took me a while to find it in the 2 feet of snow, but when I did I was surprised to find the ground unfrozen; the snow is like a big blanket keeping everything warm underneath.
What an awesome day, its about -2 with no wind and fresh snow falling. I stood for a while at the back fence and just took in the silence and beauty of it all, not too many days like this left! Last night is was very windy, out of the east whereas it was out of the west a couple of days ago, this will be good because it will fill in both sides of the yard!
You can see how much the snow has drifted in the back yard, I had to get in here to off load the small water tank the other day, if I didn't have four wheel drive I would of been in trouble!
When this stuff melts over the weekend it will make for some good moisture. I got a call from Pioneer today, my bag of grass seed is in, wouldn't you know it! The forecast is calling for highs in the single digits for the weekend than up to +15 for Monday and highs in the double digits for the whole week. Good bye snow....sob....sob!!!
