More Snow

The bench is finished.  There may need to make some cosmetic adjustments.

It was snowing some when we got up and it continue light snow until the afternoon.  I made a snow pusher pictured above, which idea came to me during the night.  It is a piece of 3/4 inch plywood twenty four inches long and about seven inches deep.  I made a handle out of an eight foot 2x2.  It was too long and I cut it at and 45 degree angle.  It was too short.  There is another piece in house six which I cut to the right length.  I changed the angle to 30 degrees,  I put a brace next the board and fastened it with screws.  It worked really well.  I cleaned the snow off the driveway and front side walk.  It was way faster than the scoop shovel.

All I needed to do was push the snow.  I used a scoop shovel for a little clean up.

Eric is bringing us some baby chicks in the morning.  I found this old box that used to have a base for oranges of melons.  I was buried in the snow in house five.  I uncovered it with a shovel.  I was going to have it in the garage.

I carried it to house two where it is warmer to let it dry out.  I decided to leave it in house two.  I brought the heating lamp and an extension cord for night time warmth.  The greenhouse temp is set at 40 degrees.  I found the feed tray which was in the garage.  I couldn't find the water bottle.   

Most of the slug traps are catching slugs.  There are two that have not trapped any slugs.  I put a trap in a new place and caught a couple of small slugs during the day.  

A closer look.   It doesn't show the two small slugs.

 The ice work continues to grow.  It freezes all night and all day.

An other angle.
