With the cold temperatures, all the swampy areas are frozen over which makes trekking into the old logging trails manageable.

Weather guessers missed it again here. Overnight forecast was for a dusting of snow, but we actually got about 4 inches. So much for my plans of working on the outside of the almost-Mighty Freightliner today.....

Only an inch or so of snow yesterday, but of course it's bitter cold today, so it won't be going anywhere. Supposed to hit 60F on Wednesday, though. Crazy weather.

Winter storm forecast but never materialized; It's OK, weatherman, I'll forgive you for this one.

I went outside for a measly six minutes this afternoon, braving [barely] sub-freezing temperatures and biting 15 MPH winds to change the broken fuel tank cap tether on the getting-mightier Freightliner. My fingers started turning purple as I was holding the screwdriver, and it took a few minutes of running them under hot water when I came back inside to get them warm and feeling again.....

Streamer overhead. Just enough to impair visibility and make the roads slippery.

66F and sunny here. But I can't go for a ride because I'm sicker than I've been in decades. Figures.

Oh yeah. Got me on antibiotics and Prednisone. Hopefully those knock this out quickly. I need a good night's sleep.

Looks like winter might be finished?

No more snow in the forecast for us. They're calling for above freezing temps and rain for the next week or two, bringing us into early March. And with the average temps being so high, any snow wouldn't last very long if it snows at all.

For the end of February/beginning of March, this is a gift. I just hope it doesn't presage a nasty, hot summer.

Nice day today; partly cloudy and 70°F right now with a high forecasted to be 73.

Nice weekend ahead that will be pretty much the same as today.
