Howdy all! Happy New Year, and all that! Winter has been a bit messy so far this year. Half a foot of snow, then a couple inches inches of rain, then a deep freeze; (rinse and repeat a half dozen times), makes for some treacherous pathways! (But I ain't complaining, too much.) It's puuuurty here! And finally got some snow that wasn't immediately followed by rain!
From a quick flight with the drone, this morning.
My, oh my! I love it here at Butedale! With this snow, there's now enough of the white stuff on the ground in the woods, that I can finally drag the canoe the rest of the way to the lake! Woo-hooo!!! It's only been stuck halfway to the lake for 3 years! lol! (Ancient super heavy 150+ pound fiberglass canoe, and a 30 to 45 degree incline to the lake, if you're wondering.) Got it halfway there with a block and tackle last time there was snow on the ground in the woods, all those 3 years past. (And have been hoping for enough snow to get it the rest of the way, since.)
Anyhoo, it's been horridly quiet this winter, for boat traffic. Haven't seen another human for almost a month, and it's been a couple months since anyone has stayed at the docks overnight. (But I ain't complaining, too much!)
The scenery is spectacular, especially with the snow on everything; and I got my crazy dog for company, and satellite internet to keep the cabin fever at bay! 
Righty then, just dropped in for a New Year's hello, (Hello!) and I'll chat at ya's later!
Cheers!
