Chilly morning for sure. We had -3 with a steady 10 mph wind. Finally gave my EFM something to pull against.

We do too, but have a bad issue with drifting. Also getting the dreaded Propane delivery (hotwater, stove, in-law suit furnace) and the drivers a little touchy about my driveway due to how far off the road I live. Oh well I guess it's another excuse to buy one of the power broom heads for the string trimmer.
