"Thursday: Patchy frost before 8am."

I would be willing to say that it's likely to snow in the next month. And keep snowing until next June.

Have had a sweatshirt on all day and wearing shoes and socks. That, alone, should be an indication that it ain't summer no more, eh?

We have 10 cord of wood ready and can get more if we need it. Will be so happy later in the year for that.

Will also be so happy to have spent the time and energy on the canning and freezing. Should have over 100 quarts of maters by the time all of it is done. Just wish I had a chance to get beans and more corn. rats.

It might be a bad winter but we are doing what we can to get ready.

I am also thinking about investing in a fancy-schmancy water purifier that I would have to have imported from England. Isn't cheap, by any means, but will clean river water of chemicals, dirt and other nasty stuff.
