After many years in business and donating countless hours to a variety of projects I have decided to formalize my annual contributions. Beginning in 2008 Maine Outdoors will donate ten percent of profits to conservation education. After reviewing 2007 the donation in time and money is significantly over that goal. The donations consist of help in making conservation education possible, trips and money.
This morning is cold with a strong northeasterly breeze; I can see the snow showers off toward the coast that must be building our way. Argy and I are working in the living room with a big fire in the fireplace. What a pleasant way to spend a morning!
We are in what is usually the coldest part of our winter and it just what we expect. This morning the temperature was a little below zero Fahrenheit without a cloud in the sky. Luckily the strong wind that was forecast has not shown up. Yes we have a breeze but not the serious wind that can make a cold day miserable. The moon is full tomorrow night which gives the spectacular nights lit by the glow of the moon reflected on the snow. It is nearly as bright as day but the light has a different quality.
