Another appointment today, this time a little closer. It was about 8c so I didn't bother with anything over my jeans and my legs weren't particularly cool.
Forecast says it will cool down and rain, then snow followed by more rain. With any luck there will be less of it on the ground by the time it is done ;)

Getting into the double digits here, and sunny. Moving part of the back fence to make a bt more room for the small garden the Mrs wants. Have to install two new fence posts. Was going to use concrete but seems expandable foam is the in thing. Going to use Sika Post Fix product - https://can.sika.com/en/do-it-yourself/ ... stfix.html. Will know how it works after this afternoon.

You won't really know until the posts have been in for a decade or 2...

Rain here today (like the forecast said). And now they're saying snow squalls all day tomorrow.

Had a couple nice days so finished up the work on the side porch. Now back to 40's wind and rain. St Paddy's Parade supposed to kick off at 10 am and that is just about when the rain stops. Might take a walk down to watch the crazies.

It is just below freezing here but the sun is shining between the clouds enough to melt the bit of snow that fell on our back deck overnight.
But we are under a travel advisory for snow squalls and the horizon in the west is NOT blue.

A good day to work on indoor projects....

Bright and sunny for the dog walking this morning but quite chilly. Low 30's with some wind. Supposed to warm up as the week goes on so maybe some riding Thursday/ Friday.
