Frosty

Not the snowman. Since the snow melted away, we've been getting some more or less heavy frosts in the morning. With temperatures just under freezing, the early morning dew freezes on almost every surface, sugar-coating our world until the sun (when there is sun) melts it away.

A frosty field with birches from many winters ago.

Our heating fuel was delivered as promised on Wednesday morning. The tanker truck pulled up at 07h30 and everything happened in the dark. Thankfully, the truck was equipped with lights and the driver knows our place (the Americans!). We should be set for the rest of this winter and well into the next, depending on the weather.

    Oh, my heavens, what a fabulous photo, Walt!
    Glad you're set with your heating oil. Whew :)
    Hey, does Ken know about exercises to do with his hands and arms, for helping with carpal tunnel symptoms? They helped me. I imagine that if he has seen a doctor about this, they've already given him this advice, but, if not, Google around and you should easily find some suggested exercises. There's a good PDF to download, here: https://orthoinfo.aaos.org/en/recovery/carpal-tunnel-syndrome-therapeutic-exercise-program/
