Fire in the hole!

Super chilly is the only way I can describe today. Even though I did venture for a walk it was not a long one, and it took me coming back in to think of what I was going to take a picture(s) of today. And that happened when I was putting wood into the wood stove to get the house warm.

Who is NOT mesmerized by fire?

Fire

in the hole!

(or wood stove in this case)

And a little bit of fun from water effect 

Water Effect

Wood Shed Art

With the intent of walking to Young's market (our local and only in town store) I grabbed my camera and took off. My outdoor thermometer said it was a sweltering 54 degrees and I was off. It did not take me but just a block to realize that although the thermometer said it was that warm, you add some wind, walk between snow berms on the side of the road that are anywhere from 1 to 3 feet tall and that temperature drops real quick!!!
Yikes it was cold, (and I was not dressed for it)
So I decided to share Wood Shed Art!

Old keys for fire hydrants and water mains

  

We do not know what this one is. Does anybody know what this is?

 An old clamp

Soooo much for just one picture a day huh? But it would not be right to not show most of them.

Seriously though we would like to know what that one tool? is above if anyone knows!

Oh Hail, Lassen County weather is ready, whether we are or not Day 39

Entirely way to cold to even think about trying to go too far to take a picture of Lassen County. Matter of fact I barely did this! Just showing a quick hail storm that blew past here, and I do mean blew!

All we did today mainly was get our wood stove in the house, taking it out every summer is something my husband has been doing long before I met him. By the time winter is finally over with for good a person is soooo sick of seeing the wood stove that taking it out every spring/summer is a welcomed chore!

Coming up our walk, this hail "blow by" probably lasted a shorter amout of time than it is taking me to write this post.

Without a doubt however Lassen County is beginning to rear her cold ass head and announce that it is time for winter, even if the calender says different!
