Didn't do much here today. It snowed most of the day. Had some pretty high wind gusts that would drop the visibility down to less than 10 feet. Supposed to snow all night tonight and all day tomorrow. I have to go out tomorrow and check some traps. Not likely I'll catch anything in this weather.

High high up the mountain are you?

High high up the mountain are you?

We're at 5,000 feet here at our house. I don't know what the snow level is but it looks like the valley is getting rain.

Okay. About the same for me, around 4800. The pass I'm always talking about is McDonald Pass at 6325 with the peaks at about 7000 or so.

Doing some early seed starting.. After saving all our yogurt and cottage cheese cartons I couldn't find them.....I think I threw them in a garbage bag to store and then threw the bag in the big dumpster I rented last fall.....Anyway picked up a bunch of the red solo beer type plastic cups and got a assembly line going with the renters 11 year old helping...
Half a dozen holes in the bottom with a small soldering gun.
Mix up a batch o my wife's special soil that includes organic potting soil, worm casting, organic fertilizer, sand and peat moss. Only got 50 or so done in between horizontal wind driven snow flurries. Starting the hardiest seeds or the slowest growing ones. Over the next month or so we will fill up our south windows and later get our small heated greenhouse and our big cheap greenhouse (first year) going...A long time till june when the freezing temps are mostly gone..

Worked on milkhouse cleanout a bit today, hung heavy plastic on the door frames of the old greenhouse...below freezing tonight. Maybe the last time. Neighbor Marlon came by, chatted my ear off outside....price of cattle, how much does meat cost in the store...price to raise each calf over the winter since he didn't sell them all in the winter..processing fees places charge. All very interesting. He saved five calves to overwinter this year, eventually they will be hamburger, so we'll take half of one at least. He does his own processing with his wife's big family, they're all set up for it. He came back over after lunch and visited with husband, brought me his wife's bbq sauce she cans, needed husband's on line help for his business. They chat forever, so I brought eggs to the other neighbor and visited a while. She didn't need them, brought five dz, but her mom does. Came home and saw that Marlon tilled our garden area, so I'll be ready to get potatoes and snap peas in the ground in a couple weeks. Looks so nice! Game night tonight and we celebrated the dog's first birthday ha ha.
