Hatches Battened, Precipitation Engaged

The first wave of the long-awaited bad weather has arrived at last. So far we have had enough rain to at least make a dent in the dryness. Heck, this morning the mist was so heavy that the screened porch had water dripping down the screens. Here’s where we were earlier today.

5:13 pm

That’s all rain. I guess tomorrow or later tonight the snow comes. Or not. Who knows? In any case we parked the motorhome in front of the garage, so it will be out of the north wind. And the generator is working!

Red is bad. Freezing rain or sleet. Yuck!

If you don’t get a blog for a couple of days understand I’m just conserving energy. We and our animals will be fine. I’ll keep knitting my red hat and temperature blanket.

Some ribbing. I remember how to knit.

Stay safe everyone! Except certain people who escaped to the beach (and you know who you are). Nah, I want everyone safe. And warm.

Remember!

  1. Your animals are loved and they’ll be safe from the weather – and I’m hoping you stay warm with no more wet shoes. You’re knitting a red hat? Maybe I missed something. My absolute favorite warm winter hat is bright red, but maybe maybe wearing a rainbow mask with it will neutralize the “red hat” affect.
