Sunday, February 6, 2011 February Thaw Today, I believe, is the first day that it's been above freezing here since Jan 1. The temp reached 33 F here at home this afternoon. The icicles are dripping and the bushes in the background are getting ready to shed their icy skin.
Saturday, February 5, 2011 From the Barn, To the House... What began as snow this afternoon, turned to sleet and freezing rain this evening. Lisa decided to put Caspian in his stall. At 10 PM, when we brought him his grain, it was fairly mild and even some flashes of lightning in the clouds.
Friday, February 4, 2011 Blue Blanket Morning When it's really cold, Caspian wears his blue blanket. This morning it was -16 F (-26 C) - not the coldest morning we've had, but a very pervasive cold. Still, it seems he'd rather be out, than in. On a positive note: it's supposed to warm up to +30 F (-1 C) today.
