rose~

sounds like it is already getting nice there.

not so here...

*sigh*

it's bright and sunny today,
but the temperature has
actually fallen since i got up
before 6 this morning.
it's about -5F
with winds gusting to 20 mph
and windchill of -25.

the front door keeps freezing
to the sash.
last night, as the temperature dropped,
the house was making those
groaning and cracking noises
that you hear in very cold weather
when the planks and roof trusses
bend and contract.

so much for going hiking today!
(my plan for the weekend)
just went outdoors for a couple of minutes
and there are "snow devils" blasting along
over the open fields across the road from my place...
brrrh!!! <g>
it's supposed to be a bit warmer tomorrow tho'..
around 20F.
so perhaps we'll get out and about then.
