Blogger/Google not cooperating, so I'll keep it quick

Another 3" of snow fell last night, so that brings the snow fall tally up to 29" for the year.  Winter hasn't started yet, so I guess this doesn't really count.  Sort of.



I'm going to write more about projects this fall & winter.  I'm hoping that making a list on here will result in my actually following through on a few things. For once.

2011-2012 Snow Tally

It's the first of November and we've already had 26" of snowfall. Predictions for this year claim that its going to low snow year. That's more than a third of Buckland's "average" snowfall for a year (68 inches).

So far the temperature has stayed low enough that the snow hasn't melted significantly. Normally I'd be all for having snow cover, but we haven't gotten our garlic in the ground yet and I've got two plus cords of wood down across the yard that needs to be split and stacked before winter really hits. The next few days are supposed to be warmer, so hopefully the snow will melt enough for us to get some garlic in the ground.

Hopefully I'll get some pictures/video of Drina playing in the snow. She's been bounding around in it like a puppy for the last few days. Her favorite game is for me to throw a snowball into the drifts for her to hunt.
