i hope this coming cold blast doesn't get down that

station and it was -13F. i think we've made it up to
about 10 or so by now with the sun being out and it
being calm. the rest of the week has a bump up for a
day or two and then right back to colder again.
Temperatures have been pretty moderate so far this winterÂ—no frozen
tomatoes or peas. I'm hoping those behind the front that's headed your
way follow the same pattern. Solid 60 Â° on the front porch now
(more-or-less 2PM on Sat, 1-26) really overcast, though. If the clouds
stay, they'll help keep the nighttime temperature up.
it won't be too bad tonight. we're due for snow on
Mon/Tues but dunno how much yet, wind may be the issue.
going to have to get the propane company back soon.

Â* I just dial "which tree is next?" Was out today looking and found
several standing dead oaks that need to come out . Look like they'll be
fairly easy to get to with Rusty the Tractor . I recently bought an
electric chain sharpener , my saws have never cut this good before - my
filing fu sucks . Paid for itself (as compared to paying 6 bucks per)
with the first sharpening session .
