Ugh!!! I have a heater out there along my line right now as my emergency shut off valve is frozen currently, downstream from my fix (which I had put in last time where my pipe bursted 17 years ago) . I’ll go without water for a bit and make sure everything is thawed before I turn back on. Otherwise I’ve moved onto getting the water damaged stuff out of garage. Good times. Hope yours didn’t do any major damage and hang in there -

Currently 17* and that is my low for the day. Southend will bubble up quickly unless that low sinks south. We lack the necessary means to keep the cold air here….Sad Panda. In the same I never trust nature as she’s surprised me to many times before….even this locations that gives up the ghost easily. -

I’m stalled out on my remodel but the room is ready. I just need to stay home long enough to make it happen. I need to find my plans I drew up but this is the general idea. Sort of and inclosed wood stove burning area. Then I want to run and oversized rustic timber above it. The wood stove would be bigger then the one in the photo. Would love to snag my parents Franklin stove as that thing kept the house hot and we cooked on it as well during the Portland ice storms (power outages). Fun dreaming up ideas like this -

Agree! My own yard testifies this has been a special event. Historic ice build up on Whiskey Barrel Falls and it continues to grow! Been fun to be in the ice box but of course would have preferred some snow as well. IMG_0654.mov -

Great day to go explore some local waterways or falls! I bet they’re decorated nicely by now. -

Definitely disappointing in the snow department for us. Also, models a week ago showed me basking in snow today for my Bday! Ugh , sad panda But, I still have a little left over from when the front went through. Do I count it as a white Bday??? -
