Seventy days of cold and winter
April and then a late Easter (April 20,2014).
March brings ever increasing daylight. We go from cold and dark to cold (relative) and light.

A sheet of ice - 377 feet.
During rain Saturday (rain began with 30F temperature) our driveway is described above.
Near midnight rain ended temperature climbed (45F) and water decreased. We have an uphill grade at the top and minor side slopes along the length of our exit to the main road. Cold rain on ice transforms all 377 feet to side slope and upslope slipping hazards. Walking is possible only near the snow banks. Driving out yesterday was doubtful because ash and sand supplies inadequate.
Church called this morning and previous applications of sand at the top broke through.
Praise the Lord and refill the sand buckets

New Year
Minus 21F this morning.
After a three hour drive we cleared two flat roofs. The snow also had an ice layer.
The correct shovels and chopper (good tools) meant success. Weight now greatly reduced on the roofs.
