Artic Weather

Good Morning from us! It is another day of cold temperatures. We are reading a notch short of -11. The birds are flocking in and are all fluffed up. We got some new snow over night but no tracks--animals must be hunkering down. My little grouse made herself a hole under the birdfeeder. You couldn't see her till she stuck out her head to get some seeds that fell from the feeder. Smart girl! We are expecting another frigid night and some snow--maybe up to 6-8 inches. I guess we will have to see what tomarrow brings. We have to restock our wood in the house and have a few outside chores. I think our seats by the stove will be used a good part of the day. Stay warm! Today is the last day the locks are opened until some time in March. We will miss those ships on the lake.
