Cold, sunny

 



Git down to 3 this morning.  It is sunny which means colder. Cloud cover keeps the heat such as it is on place.

Sunday January 25 2026

 Cold, blowing snow.


Low was 11.1, high 24.7 on my thermometer. Weather sites said low of 5.  We got more snow, about 4 to 6 inches. 


I started my car. It started right up.  Those tracks are the tractor

 Greg took it up to see about the house. 





Fed the birds.  We had a flock of black birds this afternoon. They are gone now, but will likely be back tomorrow. I am not feeding tomorrow if they come back. Take too much seed. 

Supposed to get down to nothing (0) tonight.

Snow day, January 24 2026

 Start of the deep freeze.


At 7 am it was 10.9. Has now climbed to 11.8, got down to 10.8 before starting back up. I haven't looked at the detailed outlook, too depressing.



This is a energy supply for my phone, a present many years ago from Sister Helen.  I charged it up last night in case we loose electricity I can still have a phone.  I've  never actually had to use it, but JIC.







I fed the birds. I put put feed in the feeders, but they prefer seeds scattered on the railing, the deck and the table. I give them their favorite, black oil sunflower seeds.

Stay safe, which means stay inside.

Getting ready

 For snow and cold, by feeding the birds.









This was my cold weather for work this morning. All from Sister Betty. I had arranged to just work 4 hours so I left at 10 or so. Now just waiting for spring.

Greg has the welder by the back door, and the tractor under the carport just in case.  T do not intend to go out until at least Wednesday if not later. The plant is not working Monday, and I will not go out until it is safe. Maybe April.

01/18/2026 Sunday

 For the birds.


I could not get the date set on this. Greg set the date and time, but the year will not change. It works better now with the correct time. It got down to 13 last night and hit freezing just before noon today. 


This is the little feeder Hannah and Eliseo gave me. I moved it here do I could take pictures through the door glass.




Lots of these little golden finches in their winter clothes.


I moved this one also.9
