It has been quite winter that is for sure record cold and unusual amounts of snow. The banks are still shoulder high along the roads when we walk in the morning. The last few days though the temperatures have been a little higher and the road in front of the office has been muddy a sure sign of spring! Every morning now the birds are singing loudly and the finches are checking out the garage in earnest so surely spring can’t be far off.
Last week was this annual rendezvous held this year in Asheville North Carolina. I flew down to North Carolina anticipating a warmer climate and a day on the water fishing in addition to the day of meetings and hearing about the new Orvis products.
The most recent blizzard missed us leaving only a few inches of snow. Apparently the snow fell to our east and south. The wind more than made for the lack of snow though moving the snow around and keeping the road crews busy. The temperatures were also something that you would notice, the low this morning was far below zero with the wind making it feel even colder.
