It’s bad enough with all that ice but the winds are supposed to be howling here as well. All our power banks are being charged, batteries changed and we’re getting ready as best we can. Fingers crossed 🀞

Oh I love it David!! I still have that photo you took of the leaf in snow in my head. One of my all time faves. We’re headed to a really bad ice storm on Wednesday, they’re calling for 45 mm of ice buildup.

Good morning πŸ‘‹ it’s pouring this morning, a sure sign we’re in first false Spring lol. I’m sure we’ll have at least three more false Springs before we’re out of this. Have a good day!

First false Spring, enjoy it while it lasts! We’ve got warm for the next four days and after that it’s snow, snow and more snow.

Good morning πŸ‘‹. Apparently we’re getting two days of rain and fog so the trails are going to be horrible. So instead of a hike I’m going to IKEA to run a marathon lol! Have a good one!

Good morning πŸ‘‹. There is some crazy weather heading our way for the next couple of weeks, rain and really warm for the first half and then back to 30 cm snow. Mother Nature is feeling spicy. Have a great day!
