When I was in school (a loooong time ago) they taught us this rhyme to keep the words straight:
"Whether the weather is cold
Or whether the weather is hot
We'll weather the weather
Whatever the weather
Whether we like it or not"
And today, I gotta tell you, I'm not particularly pleased.
The water in the barn was frozen, so the fastest thing to do was to lug four buckets from the house to get water to the horses, then get a heat gun out to thaw the pipes coming up from under the floor. Mission accomplished.
However, it is still about -15C with another 15 degrees of wind chill. It isn't snowing, but the cold air is picking moisture up from the Bay of Fundy and dropping it here in the Annapolis Valley. We'll end up with a couple of inches of the stuff by the time the wind drops tonight.
This is the time of year I keep the countdown firmly in mind: Only 6 weeks to Maple season! Only 5 weeks...
Cheers
