Spring? HUMBUG !

It's raining at 34 F.

I got up this morning to another foot of sodden snow, followed by six hours of freezing rain.

I came home from work early yesterday to wrest what chunks of firewood I could from snow piles and ice. I put the last two logs in the stove at 2:00; now just embers.

Mayhap, when and if the sun comes up, there will be the tops of some more wood exposed and not frozen in. Next wood delivery on Saturday.

Around here, Spring is a long weekend in late April.

Now is the winter of our discontent...
