Crumbly Acres crumbles some more

That was a cold morning, Saturday (-21℃). I was up at 3:45 to powder my nose, and peeked outside. The wind was blowing like mad. Snow was flying. I hustled myself back under the covers and my electric blanket! 

Sunday morning was worse at -24℃! 

 

I knew when I looked out the bathroom window that we'd had snow. It accumulates on the window.  


Good Bunny (formerly known as Labbit) has captured my attention. She's still using burrow #5, under the flag pole and hydrangea. I have evidence. Red asked about her gender. You can't tell from my viewpoint. I just chose 'her!' 



Here is the hydrangea in summer! I have strong hopes that spring and summer will arrive!

Good Bunny the cottontail zips by on the camera. Feb. 7th, she went through at 4 a.m. in the snow. This was Jan. 25.

 

There are lots of deer.
   

 Down at the frogpond.

 

Good Bunny, formerly known as Labbit, visited around 4 a.m. but she didn't appear on the camera. She is way too fast. That, and the snow just blocked her out.


I could see when her tracks appeared, but not her loping along. Quick as a bunny.


🪏In more fun news, I shoveled the front walk. Got the snowblower started, the auger was working, but I couldn't get it into gear. Neither forward nor reverse. It would start. It didn't like 2nd, 3rd, or 4th. The auger was working just not the gear shift. I hope it is a simple fix. I phoned my guy, we'll see how we do. It was only about 5 cm snowfall. It is drivable if we need supplies. 

🖨 Oh yes. Our printer/scanner died after I did the prescribed firmware update. I knew I shouldn't do it. Nothing good comes of updates. Crikey! I took it into the computer store Friday. We shall see.
