Yeah. I call this place wood burner's hell because wood is our only heat source. One day it will be 45 with the night in the thirties and the next night hit single digits like we will tonight. It is better for me when it just gets cold and stays cold.
+1
10°f at night 15 - 20 days till spring
Wouldn't that be nice. Heat regulation is easy then.
We can dream.
What I hate the most it the temps get in the 40s mid January,
Thaw out the ground surface & melt the snow, muddy ruts & puddles, then freeze at -10.
We'll be getting some heat from the sun in March, "breakup" starts. In April, the ground is Goushy (thawed top 2 ")
Time to leave for vacation. Can do nothing outside.
