Spiffy, not
So we're having another blizzard. People have been feeling nervous, because word at the feed store was that the Farmer's Almanac had correctly predicted the two other blizzards at Christmas and New Years, and was supposedly predicting another BIGGER one in February....
If this one is it, the good part is that any incoming snow is going to promptly blow down to Oklahoma and Texas. The winds have been running steady at about 45-55 mph since early this morning. The bad part is...as pictured below. That WAS the roof of our dogs' turnout pen. Lucky the tree is there, or Dreamcloud would have a new hat.
There's birdseed EVERYWHERE, and I have no idea where the plate of peanut butter went.

This is the field across the road from us. Yesterday it was covered with about a foot of old snow.

Do you remember our black sheet plastic experiment? It was actually working! If the wind dies down by tomorrow, as predicted, I am going to shift it down a few more feet. If it's still here....
Note the chilly ghost on the swing.
