Yesterday’s 60’s will soon be a memory. Today, I tried to get some time outside to get things wrapped up before the snow and cold revisit. Got the tree all cut up with the chain saw, wood stacked and limbs hauled to next year’s bonfire pile.

Other housekeeping chores included filling corn buckets for stove, started work on the household composter, did a garbage run, and cut some boards for the attic.

It went without notice that Monday was the 1st anniversary of the high hopes blog. 367 entries and counting!
