Early Winter...12º

 Over a foot of snow here on Barton Heights and it is only mid November...Luckily Herb and I were diligent in getting everything cut down, cleaned up and put away for winter...Herb was smart to get the plow on the four wheeler and has already used it twice, so we can get in and around our property...Shoveling/brooming snow has happened almost daily for several days now, as each morning we wake up to yet another snowfall over night...The exercise and fresh air is good for both of us and we take our time, shoveling, resting, hydrating and eating.

Saturday evening,  a text came in that 3 cords of wood was on its way to our house...We had spent a lazy Saturday watching it snow and didn't realize how much it was adding up!..We quickly bundled up, cleared snow off the deck and walks, and opened a basement window so the wood could be thrown into the "wood room," downstairs...About two hours later the "wood crew" had unloaded and stacked our winters wood...Let it snow, let it snow!

Today is my first day, posting a blog on my computer with its new battery...It arrived by UPS on Tuesday, sent by Bobi from Portland...It is much easier to blog on laptop than iPhone, but due to the storm our wifi was out for many hours...Hugs To All...OWAV:)

Still having problems getting photos to load. GRRRRR

Maple leaves finally falling.

snow keeps falling.

The flakes were huge.

Herb blooming the steps.

Flag in place for another day.
