Slush

We still have snow cover. I still do not expect to see bare ground until April. However, it rained all night and turned the snow into a wet, heavy slush. The good news is that it uncovered my wood pile, so I can continue with the job of stacking firewood. The bad news is that it makes the driveway and yard so slick that it is difficult to drive vehicles around. Nonetheless, we were able to move what needed to be moved and park the vehicles in their permanent-until-spring spots.

Our two travel trailers went north today to a less snowy spot in a friend's yard. The warm temperatures had melted any snow on the plowed highway, so we had very good driving conditions with dry roads. That is a good thing when one is towing two trailers behind a single truck. It was a big relief to get that job done because more snow is predicted for tonight and tomorrow. Another foot of snow is likely. We still have a few more things to do before we will really be ready for winter. Sigh.
