Happy 2016

We didn't think all our future kindling cut in the fall would make it up to the house before snow. Here's one of our many piles that will likely be in place until April.

Big oaks and hophornbeams, which have seen many bad winters up here, are preparing for the coldest air of the season so far. We'll be below zero Monday and Tuesday mornings.

Birch groves are also taking the season in style.
