I am writing on the 19th , a day after a snow/sleet/rain and then freeze event (winter in Maine.) I had planned on roto-tilling and spreading fertilizer but alas I think I will put it off for ...oh?...a 100 days or so. Not complaining at all , we had such a great summer and fall in 2016 that winter is welcome with all of it’s beauty. One thing with the snow covered with a 1/4 inch of ice is “SNOW TUBING!” we are going tonight...will report if I break anything!
Oddly enough, yesterday our kids in Wiscasset and Newburgh had warmer weather than us in Texas. Our daughter’s family in north Texas was coldest at 19, we were next coldest and the daughter in Alabama was even colder than the kids in Maine. That is freaky weather.
Be careful and stay warm.
