So the talk at the Rodeo Cafe this week was all about the big freeze. It’s quite the topic of conversation. Apparently, no one in town took showers for a few days. There is  statewide shortage of pressure pumps, and pipes are broken everywhere.

We got off pretty easy. Only one pipe actually broke, and it was a minor one (to the greenhouse). Brad did report that after thawing part of the tank with my hair dryer, we used a record amount of power. As for me, I still have wine bottles filled with water all over the house…just in case.

We changed the angle on the solar panels again today. That is a sign to me that spring is coming.
