Thanks Izzy. A total waste of perfectly good snow! While we slept, 10 soft puffy inches fell around us, and when we woke an all-day rain came to ruin it all.
Most of our kitchen supplies are now in the living room, and the chop saw is in the kitchen, safe from weird weather and freezing. Warm evenings are spent playing cribbage by the fire. Our new pressure tank was acquired, seen bagged and blue in the background of the first fire photo.
The pressure tank has now been rough plumbed and is ready to go in! Here are some photos of the wacky wiring Brandon spliced together while I was busy stacking stones. New utility outlets, new switch and outlets in the bathroom, the consolidation of craziness found behind the walls, new outlets for the kitchen and a brand-new line for the microwave/hood.
The rain let up mid-afternoon and the sun even made a brief appearance! We get straight to shoveling icky slush before the night freeze. We finish just before dark, so I build a snowman in the truck (one good use for wet snow!) and decide to try and make some new cross-country tracks before it freezes…NOPE. The snow is so deep and wet I only get 10 feet from the house when my right ski suddenly sinks down to a buried level of ice and takes off without my consent beneath the snow:) Brandon “helps” me up after a photo shoot.
