Woke up this morning to lots of snow and 2 to 3 ft drifts.Have to go to the woods when the weather gets better and see how much snow we really got,can't tell here in the wide open with the wind blowing it.Kid's are happy all area school's are closed.All I'm going to do today is can syrup for a couple of orders I have,and make a batch of candy seed.
Holy wind storm man the power has been out for quite awhile and just came back on. I am afraid to go to the sugarbush I got tree branches all over the lawn and about a foot of snow to boot. Power must of went out in the night cause the darn blower switch on the stove burnt up from all the heat in it. Man I love winter sometimes.
We're supposed to get a foot or so by the time it's all over. We're not putting any more taps in this year. I'm glad we worked on that when we had very little snow on the ground. It was a lot easier than last year when we waded in a foot of snow.
Here comes winter!
First time in almost 40 years I was glad they closed school early today. Was sitting in class and somebody came to the door and told the teacher and we got to go home at 1:oo pm. Drove home at about 60 to 70 klicks and then worked in the shop on my projects. See what tomorrow brings. They report closures some how on radio french.
I wasn't quite ready for all this snow. I was hoping for a few more weeks but o well. I'll have to finish my work in the snow. Temps are going to drop for the near future so it looks as if it will be a white Christmas. I need to walk the laterals in the woods before the snow sets up. I hate digging laterals and drops out of the ice.

Sure am glad she who must be obeyed had me put up all those light that are buried now. I went to work this morning after my earlier post and you get 2 miles up the road and I seen grass. Gotta love the Lake Ontario snowbelt. Remind me why do I live here, Oh yea that's right my maple tree's. Wonder if I can move them? Anybody curious as to where I live get online and look at the NY weather radar and when you see the heaviest accumalation spot on the radar well that is sitting right over me. And will be till tapping time.
