Snow (repeat)
December 20th

It's colder this time so the snow is light and fluffy.

The back yard is a "winter wonderland" again.


(20:12:2022)
This time there was only about 4 inches, so things aren't so buried.


(20:12:2022)

Still lots piled on the newspaper box.

It didn't take long to clear the driveway, but the "gate sign" succumbed to the snow that hit it from the street plow.

By 9 AM the sun had come out and the sky was turning blue!


(20:12:2022)
Morning sun on the neighbours' trees.

And making shadows through the frost on the glass side of the back deck.

The bird house in the cherry tree has extra insulation on its roof.

Our foray into the local Christmas light up competition!

Well the Humming bird heater sort of works! If you look at the popup version you can see the top third is frozen, but the bottom clear part is still liquid. It was -9oCish when the picture was taken

The next modification is the addition of an old sock, cut and stitched to fit. The clear part at the bottom is in hope of being able of telling when it gets low.

If you open the popup of this screen shot (click anywhere on the picture to the left) you can see the over night temperature history.

Todd, from Life Styles Metal in Black Creek, is here to install a hand rail on the front step.

These guys are getting the 2022 work out of the way before 5:00pm today and the start of Christmas break. These are the same guys that did the rail on the side yard.

(22:12:2022)
About 30 minutes, and the rail is in place and tested. A quick coat of green paint next spring and it will fit right in.
