Brrr, I’m not a big fan of single digits. This winter has been fairly mild up to this point so last Monday morning’s two degrees was a rude awakening.

So far this winter has been great. When it rains it is in the forties. Then, on the really chilly days it has been very sunny.

It’s been interesting to predict this winter’s weather.

Here it is the first day of a brand new year. The day was simply beautiful, up into the 50s and sunny.

How fun it was to wake up Christmas Eve morning to a tiny dusting of snow. I’m not sure one would call it a white Christmas but it was pretty close.

Brr! It was so chilly on Tuesday that I stayed indoors all day and did nothing but load the woodstove. Nothing is quite as comfortable as a wood fire.
