#coffeechain GM, March is in like Lion, but it won't last long. The sun will have it's way. We had an ice storm on Tuesday and maybe more tonight, but in between, yesterday it was sunny and in the 60s. The lion was sleeping.

#coffeechain GM, We got a bit of an Ice storm last night. I had a work dinner on the other side of the state. I had to drive through Hartford to get home. The highway planners in the 1960's decided to put I84 smack dab in the middle of the city. To do this they elevated the highway on bridge that spans a good part of the city. Well bridges freeze first in an ice event. Some joker decided to speed through the windy elevated span. It didn't end well. I was stuck for about half an hour waiting for the state cops and EMS to clear the scene. Hartford cops won't respond because it is interstate. Finally with bad wipers and all, but we were blessed sparkling crystal trees this morning. Photo doesn't do it justice. This will all melt in a couple hours.

#coffeechain #dogstr GM, It's a dog's life. Wake up, go out for a morning constitutional, eat breakfast and go back to sleep.

#chickenstr #eggstr My chickens started producing again at the beginning of the month. Now production is ramping up. This always happens before I finish the last gallon waterglass eggs. They will get a bunch of scrambled eggs over the next week and we will consume the fresh eggs.

My daughter found this opossum in her Tennessee #homestead. It dug a hole under the chicken coop and waited for the robot door to open. It got into a fight with the rooster. Sadly the rooster is no more, but he did his job, protected the hens and alerted my son-in-law.

#coffeechain GM, It's snowing again thanks to fast moving clipper. Well, I just cleared the blizzard snow. This is lighter and easier, but we are running out of places to put it.

#dogstr Blizzard boy. This is his weather. He gets to play. I get to work.

#coffeechain GM Snow on Friday, snow yesterday, snow today, blizzard tomorrow, snow on Tuesday....still winter. Spent last night moving the remainder of my wood inside. We are getting ready for extended power outages.

#coffeechain GM, Need to clear the slushy, icey snow today. First #coffee

#BTC Of course he does. It is an existential treat to the fed.

#snow #dogstr Yukon loves the snow. This is his weather. Here he is sticking his nose in deer tracks.

#coffeechain GM, GA, GE, It is snowing again in New England. We have bumper crop of precipitation this year.

#homestead #foodstr #bread #sourdough #nostr #grownostr GM, GA, GE Here is a my latest mechanical venture. I added a motor to my hand crank grain mill. Automation has replaced labor.

#coffeechain GM, GA, GE, Coffee wins again if you trust Harvard science. View quoted note →

#coffeechain GM, It is slightly above freezing and sunny for another day. I can do outdoor work that doesn't involve snow removal. Yay!

#chickenstr #chicks #homestead Happy valentine's day! I usually clean the coop every six weeks. I do it at the end of November and wait until the January thaw to clean it after the holidays. The January thaw didn't come until today. The hens started laying a couple weeks ago. I figured that I should return the favor so they don't have to lay in their stalagmites of poop .

#coffeechain GM, Mug number three; #coffee is cold, but it is better than no coffee.

#proofofsteps #runstr We're loving the deep snow this year.

#dogstr #foodstr Happy Birthday Keppy! Have a canine cannoli.
