c-c-c-cold

It is definitely winter!  It was -2F this morning.  I think we hit a high of 7 or 8.  Pretty sad when I had to take the ice chipper to remove the frozen glob of chicken poo so I could close the pop door.
The sun was shining today so hopefully the greenhouse will survive.  My very-low-tech heating system seems to be working reasonably well but this is the coldest it has gotten so far.  The water in the heating buckets had a skim of ice on it yesterday (about as cold as today- about 14F for a high) but was not all frozen and it was actually fairly pleasant in there.
Now, I've got some hemming to do.

  2. This deep freeze is something else - it was -8 this morning at my place and I was celebrating when it hit +1! We are looking forward to a high in the single digits. O joy!
