Looks like most of the storminess has gone inland and sparing the vast estate.
Have had rain off and on through the day and some tornado warnings but nothing
happened. Wind is picking up a bit but nothing too significant yet, trees are

Just got the call, we'll be out grooming tomorrow night. I got the ASV started
yesterday but it needed 3 hours of heat first. I think it might have some
gelled fuel. I put some goop in it and let it run for an hour. I'll plug it in
tomorrow after lunch. It should be fine by 6...

Anybody else get snow? We got more than a foot. Light powdery stuff, easy to
move.
Angie got some wooden snowshoes a couple months ago at a thrift store, she's
loving tromping around in this stuff. There is something so much more
satisfying about wooden snowshoes than the modern aluminum and
83F and shoveling lots and lots of sun. Humidity was pretty low, making it
really nice. Got some work done on the finnie after work.

Was like 75F and very humid today (and yesterday too) here, was really
foggy this morning. A little while ago it started getting cool and
foggy again.
I found little tomatoes getting ripe on a plant I found last spring in
my compost bin, put it in a pot, grew but no fruit last summer.
48 degrees and raining at my house. 43” of snow in Flagstaff in a day and a
half. Snow in North Scottsdale. We certainly need it though.
I’ll remember this day when it’s sunny and 115 degrees F.
