Off to see the Ottawa Senators hockey team play the New York Islanders tonight. Our son Don got cheap tickets through his work so the five of us from here are going and the four of them as well. It should be an interesting game and hopefully Ottawa will break their losing streak.
Got some things shifted from the backyard into the garage and the snow blower unblocked and moved. Tried starting it and while it didn’t start on the first pull it only took a couple of pulls and chock on to get it going. Didn’t try and run it just wanted to see if it would start. Will probably give the intake rotors a go tomorrow. Don’t want to rush things. I had wanted to get it moved and ensure that it was working last month but always thought that the renovations would be finished and that would be the ideal time. But as the world turns it didn’t turn out that way. Anyway at least it starts.
Hopefully, will make it to the allotment garden tomorrow and dig up the parsnips and see how the sweet potatoes survived. The parsnips should stay in the ground as long as possible and do like to get a good cold snap to bring out the sweetness. I am not so sure about the sweet potatoes though. i think they should have been out of the ground before a frost. Oh well, will see how they turned out. And there is always next year.
A really dull and dreary day today. Rained all morning and completely cloud covered now and still a good chance of rain.
I have Hareth out cutting down the remaining flower stalks in the front yard so we will have an area to blow the snow into. I know that the snow will be coming. Wishing that it wouldn’t but we do live in “The Great White North”.
You will also notice that I have added some more information about today's weather giving the past years results. Today's actual data, as usual, will be added tomorrow
