Samhain                                                                             New Thanksgiving Moon

Winter weather advisory last night. Woke up to a good five inches, maybe more. Still falling. Differences in altitude and location make predicting weather for even a relatively small area difficult, especially in the mountains. Also realized I have no gas for the snowblower. Have to wait this one out.

On these mornings I have to clear the deck before I let the dogs out, but Vega hears my shoveling and begins barking. At 4:50 a.m. Not a way to make good neighbors.

These early snows are heavy, wet. Combined with gusts Weather5280 says there might be some power outages. I hope not. The generator got installed, but it needs a hand on it before it’s a reliable partner. Probably not enough rpm’s to generate the electricity we need, a problem most likely created by altitude.

But, our oven’s working, so Thanksgiving will happen here.
