"It's a Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood".............

As the late, Mr Rogers used to say.
Not really all that nice out. Cloudy w/ mist. But it is a bit warmer and that'll make working outside easier.

I dropped another good size tree yesterday and got the bulk of it topped out so today will be spent cutting into the real firewood.

This recent breath of Al Gore's global warming with the accompanying cold ass temperatures has eaten a substantial hole in the woodpile out there. Makes it easier to figure how much I have to be cutting now for next Winter though.

It would be nice to get a 2 year supply together just in case something unforeseen, like the recent foot problem arises again.
Be Prepared as the Boy Scouts say.
This woodstove continues to be a major blessing in keeping the utility bills down and the comfort level up around here.

Hope to hear some good news on the tractor implements from my coworker today.

mmpaints @ Self Sustained Living offered some advice on seed corn for both cornmeal and chicken feed the other day and it looks like I need to be getting an order ready for some of that. Looking forward to getting the Garden going this Spring.

The chores and chainsaw are calling.
