OUR FIRST HARD FREEZE AT THE NEW HOUSE

Well in years past, the big Winter storms we've had were while we were in town and the farm was out there by itself.  Many times, too many


Ice and sleet predicted for everyone, almost all the way to the coast...


Temps in the upper TEENS for us.  Brrrr!!

But the plants are safe inside...



We moved stuff around and got both cars in the garage so they'll be safe from the elements.


Bill will have to stay outside but I took him for a long drive to move fluids around, get it warmed up and charge the battery well.  Parked between the two buildings it stays sheltered from North winds.


Our attic is super insulated so we shouldn't have to worry about the few pipes that run through it.  We have temp sensor up there to keep an eye on things.


Now we just sit back in the house, cross our fingers the power stays on and enjoy the Winter wonderland we might have in a few short hours.

Stay warm. 
Stay safe.
