A Third Blast of Winter - Followed by Spring

Another surprise blast of winter in early March

Needed to do some plowing of the upper driveway to get the car down.

When the weather is bad I can always work on the inside.
Here painting the upper parts of the ceiling joists from a
step ladder on top of scaffolding. Do I have enough ladders?

A nice winter sunset.

Finally, the daffodils have come out.

Judy gets the itch to dig in the dirt, establishing ornamental plants.

Satellite Internet



Steve installting the satellite dish for Xplorenet satellite internet.
Fred cutting down a few trees to make a clearing in the sky
for satellite access.

Timber!

In the process we gained a clear view of a great Arbutus
tree that was previously hidden in the forest. Also a good
load of firewood for next winter.
