Pot is a little worse for wear, but it is our "bad" pot.. so not an issue.

Glad there wasn't anything combustible on the stove!

 

[Alaskan]

Oh no! Thank goodness there was no fire!

Yep! So happy nothing bad happened.

 

[Alaskan]

Still snow, snow, snowing.

Some friends of ours had a pizza box on their stove. Their dog (lab, I think) put his paws up to sniff the box and inadvertently knocked the burner knob to the on position. Fortunately, they were in the next room and smelled the burning before it became a serious fire!

Wow! Reason to only have the controls on the back! I always picked those models because of all the kids...

I agree. I never wanted a stove with knobs on the front either, because of the kids. But apparently if you want a gas stove, they don’t put those knobs on the back. Gas is supposed to be great to cook on, but I love my smooth glass top so much, that I will just deal with any drawbacks that electric has. I would buy glass top again if I ever need to buy a new stove.

Oh, and I set combustible things on my stovetop all the time. No worries about it getting turned on by accident, but I guess I’ll just have to be mindful if we ever get a power outage.

Gonna snow again tonight.

Didn't even try to do school today.... just snow removal

See the buried Jeep?

Pond, pond coop, jeep and old plow truck...

bobcat front and center.

 

[Alaskan]

Woke up this morning.... so happy it didn't snow last night.

The hours of work we had done still looked good.

And you betcha! Started snowing about 10:30, all blizzard snow storm.

 

[Bruce]

I assume the Bobcat is 4WD? Would it maybe help to have chains on the front as well?

It might be really beautiful but WOW.... how much have you had???? I couldn't do it anymore.... don't even want to see any here except it would help with the ground moisture... Maybe into the new year when I am getting around better; we could have a little bit....just a smidgen....snow is better than rain for us this time of year.... BUT ..... NOT by the foot...
