Weather update

Yesterday was our first oficial day of Winter! Needed to turn the headlights off about 8:30 and back on around 5:00. Rain gauge shows 49.10 inches for the year. They say these electronic gauges only register 75% of actual rainfall! Temps here at sealevel are in the low 30's day and night which means we keep a fire going all day. It usually goes out at night but it only gets down in the low 50's inside. When it really gets cold I'll need to get up once or twice to keep it going. We've received a lot of snow this year and roads and people are suffering. I'll keep you posted on both but right now it looks like we'll have to help out later on.
