-23 C, windchill - 32 C, wish I could stay home today, got a truckload of tiles to deliver to Niagara Falls. :'(
I would rather go to a bridal show :D

  Bridal show?  They showing other tack as well?  Ive seen some fancy Bridals and saddles, never knew they had shows for them!    :laugh:

   Thermometer shows -7.. internet says 35 mph winds..  I am procrastinating about going out to fill the wood stove, thats why I have GAS backup..  stove gets low the furnace kicks in and I remain WARM..   My Dobie is upside down in the chair beside me, and I have a full cup of hot coffee as I listen to the wind howling outside...

-6 f outside with 35 mph winds.. I am SO ready for winter to be over..   Last winter wasnt nearly this nasty.. in fact its been many many years since we had an ugly winter like this..  I packed in more wood this year because All the old timers and the almanac predicted a bad winter, and its starting to look like I am not going to have enough..   All I can do is hope we get a mid 30's day before march when I can get down to the bottom and get wood cut.

What the heck are you talking about? Didn't you just fly off to someplace warm and relaxing? You're back for a day or two and the cold is getting old?
I don't know what my buddy Jack is gonna think about this whining.  :)

rodmaker,
been listening to public radio this morning on your situation, and dry conditions. doesn't make for a good situation for keeping bees healthy, or keeping bees.

Got down to 24F (-4C) last night. Also had about 0.5" (12mm) of snow, which, for us, is a veritable blizzard!  ;D

Opened the outside coop for the chickens this morning and they were having no part of the white stuff. Looks like they're staying inside until it melts.

Tomorrow the high temperature is supposed to be 70F (21C).  ???

 I can't believe that we are having the same temperature as up north this morning, got down to 20 here, we are suppose to be warming up to 39 though.

Good Morning.  I can't believe how much snow and cold temps we are getting!!  Hope the bees survive all of this...really apprehensive about it.

ditto blue!  we are back down to subzero temps and crazy windchill factors, we shoveled off the driveway and deck looking like polar bears, and the snow is blowing back over.  weather says we will remain in this pattern for another week!

Every day seems to start out the same here.
Wake up to more new snow fall and single digits
Schools closed again
Plow driveway so wife can go to work
Snowblow path in back yard so little dog can crap
Try to find mailbox after county plow truck passes by
Risk life going to town for more beer
Watch weatherman and see the same for tomorrow
Look in direction of where beehives used to be seen
Go to bed drunk and depressed
Start all over in the morning 
We having fun yet?  ;D
