Over a foot of new snow yesterday & today; high of 5F.

Naturally, I couldn’t get out for work. The tractor is still in the shop, so called the local service company to send out a road grader. Got a call back a bit later, and was told that on the way here, the blade hit a rock, and broke the central pivot plate...no replacement parts before Monday.

I called off for tomorrow, too, then fired up the snowblower. I still have a 1/4 mile of steep driveway to finish, to get to the mile of private road out to the county road.

Needless to say, nothing new on the gardening front, other than the arrival of another catalogue.

So far we have not had much snow accumulation this winter. We had some really good rain that started wet and turned into snain, then sleet. Followed by moderate temps so it melted pretty quick.
