Happy New year! 2012 is going to be an interesting, fast paced year.
We are having a very mild winter so far. Our road is pretty icy now, a couple of sections you could go ice skating on. The scariest parts are down to the bare gravel,...

Darn. I think Punxatawney Phil was wrong this year. I really do. Everyone's favorite little furry guy came out on February 2nd and did not see his shadow. That is only supposed to mean one thing, and that is only 6 more weeks of winter. Looking at the...

We've had cold, cold, cold weather and not a drop of maple sap for quite a few days. A grainy, icy snow still covers the ground and the poor robins congregate at any open areas of grass in search of a meal. The snow covers the food of the...

Spring !!
It seemed like it would never come, and yet......
There are puddles everywhere, not the gentle puddles left after a light rain, but the deep mud filled ruts that splash water all over your car as you slowly drive through them. Yesterday...

Winter is colder this year than it's been for a while! Or maybe I just forget from year to year? I compare it to having a baby in some respects, as you forget about the pain as soon as you see those beautiful green "baby" shoots coming up out of the...

I was surprised that our chickens had such a strong reaction the first time they experienced snow. Our hens have free range over our yard all day long and they are tucked away safe and sound at night from preditors. I was surprised when we got our first snow...

Believe it or not I prefer snow around here...especially since we rarely get more than a foot or so. I think we are at about 8 inches now at most, but it is still slowly falling!! It becomes so quiet that you feel like you are wrapped up in a big blanket...

December was more like January in the weather department. Here's hoping it will make for an early spring, the likes, we have not really seen in a few years.
I can remember some years when March was a lot like April, but it seems so long ago.
