March break is here,

So now I need to do extra work outdoors to prepare for not flooding the basement. Which means moving overly large piles of old snow, exposing the grass where possible, opening run off channels down slopes away from the house, double/triple checking down spouts, and keeping window wells clear of any ice build up. Then crossing my fingers and hoping I have done enough in prep for single digit above zero temps, possible rain and more snow! Ugh. I wish the snow would leave in a week, instead of taking a month or more, of back and forth. Freezing, thawing then snow, then rain, then flurries, then warm weather, then rain, then flurries, then what you hope is the last snowfall, but until we reach mid April all bets are off on that front. Blargh.

I wonder at those who travel at this time of year, must be nice to have a well drained piece of property.

Happy Saturday.
