<b>This winter is seeming to have turned. November and December gave us over 4 feet of snowfall and since the 1st we have got over half an inch of rain. Looking at the satellite images it looks like this is the next weeks of weather, more rain and southerly storms than cold ones from Alaska. That said it has made the driveway into a complete sheet of ice and super difficult to walk on and just as fun to try and drive on. Today I am going to go spread sand on the transition at the end of the driveway so it doesn't act like a slingshot. At this point I'm ready for the ice to be gone, snow is fine but this ice is annoying.  While my clothes were in the wash I got my dentist appointment made and now begin the tortuous process of dealing with my mouth. I was kinda SOL from the get go with them, I had two adult teeth that had fused together and got removed amongst a host of other problems. I hate dental work which only exacerbates the problems even more, which leads me to where I am now. At least it will be getting going in winter when I am not having to be so active on the farm. Progress is being made on the puzzle slowly but surely and I almost got the shade line completed across the bottom.  I keep a close eye on the weather all the time and have learned to read the satellite and doppler images with fairly good accuracy. I tend towards the north Pacific motion view. This gives the best idea of the temperature of the storms we will be getting just by watching their movement. You can see when the air is being drawn down from the cold north or up from the balmy tropics. Combined with the la nina ocean temps it is making for a really wet year.  It freezes at night then thaws in the day, always creating thicker ice on the driveway. The rain all afternoon didn't help that much, it just made the ice ultra slick. I couldn't walk anywhere in the driveway as I just slid downhill. The only option is to walk on the sides where there is still some texture to the ice.  Today I am on driveway duty trying to make it at least passable. I'll break out my seed spreader to get better coverage with the sand I have. <center>https://i.imgur.com/jZHRpZ9.png</center> <center><a href="https://affiliates.harvestright.com/958.html" target="_blank"><img style="border:0px" src="https://affiliates.harvestright.com/media/banners/Affiliate-300x600-2.png" width="300" height="600" alt="300x600-2"></a> *^Affiliate/Referral Link^*</center> <center>https://i.imgur.com/jZHRpZ9.png</center> <center><a href="https://listnerds.com/@flemingfarm" target="_blank"><img style="border:0px" src="https://listnerds.com/banner/250x250/listnerds.gif"></a> </center> <center>https://i.imgur.com/jZHRpZ9.png</center> <center>Play [Rabona](https://hive.blog/@rabona) the soccer manager game on Hive!
