Yesterday morning we woke up to the first snow of the season. The ground was covered with about two inches and it had stuck to the roads so the highway crews were out salting and sanding. It's awfully early in the season and I hope we don't have one of those years where snow is on the ground from November through April. Makes for a l-o-n-g winter.
Since they put salt on the road, I had to put my car away for the season. Luckily, I had the oil changed the day before yesterday, and I topped off the gas tank as well. All I had left to do was clean the interior and put the cover on it.
I would like to say that Lori and I are settling in for the winter. Usually at this time of year we start to prepare for Thanksgiving and Christmas. But now we're doing nothing but working on the other house in our spare time. I'm not complaining - I know it will be worth the effort. I'm just looking forward to having some time to relax again.
