The Blizzard

What a storm! The wind was so strong that I was wearing my goggles and helmet when I was outside clearing the snow. Seemed rather pointless as the drifts were moving so quickly. The upside was that it didn't accumulate on our roof at all. Nearly half of it has already disappeared. Must be March. Did give us a chance to have fun sledding off the roof again! Even had a friend come over with his snowboard. 

Out of six consecutive school days the girls had five snow days. We had some fun, but everyone was definitely ready to get back into the routine. Luckily we could enjoy snow club. The wind had blown most of the new snow right off the back of the mountain, making some impressive drifts in the process. It was fun to hike up and check them out. 

Didn't have much time for the bathroom, but the water is finally hooked up and working. That was a big milestone. It is really a time sink of a project though. So much detail. Hopefully I can make some good progress this week. 

What a drift.

Digging down to get light downstairs.

The compost is alive!

Over 100 degrees under there.

The sunken greenhouse is sinking!

Getting organized.

What a view.

Out towards our land and above the treetops.

Fun ride down.
