Mastodawn

A lot of work yesterday. Bow saw was busy! I was exhausted by the end — great, unplanned workout! Still have to get roots out of the ground, side branches off and move the trunks into the woods — and then replace vegetation on the hill, to reduce erosion. I could see about hiring a tree crew, but they're probably so busy right now, I don't think they'd get to it any sooner than I can do it — staged, of course. Use a chainsaw or the bow saw?

Know what we need? A distraction! Here's a small dog, happy in her fluorescent yellow coat walking on a wide ice and snow-covered road in the woods. You can hear a couple of her jealous friends yapping — they want such a nice coat, too.

Have a good night and a good day tomorrow.

Who doesn't love a snowday?!* The hill was so steep and icy, I was afraid she'd start sliding and keep going if I didn't have her on the leash! 😂

*The big one — cameo at the end of the clip — doesn't like snow or cold.

Declared January 2 a holiday here — not a loafing one cause lotsa home projects to do and plenty of catch up computer work. Woke to another light dusting of snow. Had an idea we might see precip based on the sky last night.

Another nice morning for a long dog walk. No complaints here. 😊

Almost time to get ready for the weekend.

Have a good day.

Woke to a surprise — snow changes everything. Nice morning for a dog walk. 😊

Have a good day.

Time for one last walk in the woods with the dogs this year. The (illegal) fireworks later will scare them 😡 so we have to go now. Not going to see much — a cloudy night.

Almost #SilentSunday — just the crunch of ice underfoot. Glad I grabbed a pair of sidewalk crampons before I walked out of the house. This road to nowhere was a sheet of ice from yesterday's wx (no snow 😢). I wanted to give the dogs a good walk. From their facial emotions not sure they agreed.

Have a good day.
