Take Cover

We'd intended to get some things done outdoors today, but while the weather was mostly clear to partly cloudy, bitterly cold west winds put paid to most of our plans. Even walking to the post office after dinner this evening was a chore, although as it happens wearing face masks helped cut the cold on our faces a bit. A box I'd ordered was waiting in a locker, and it has some things I will write about tomorrow. Meanwhile, I'm glad we have a full supply of firewood (we refilled the front-porch box during a lull in the wind this afternoon) and that I don't have to set an alarm tomorrow.
