April 29, 2014 - Tuesday
35 degrees/heavy snow/breezy
Pentoga Road

The snow just keeps falling. Right now, it's coming down in snowball-sized flakes. Hopefully, it will melt before accumulating. It has to. I took the plow off the four-wheeler last weekend!

Speaking of last weekend, it was a pretty ho hum proposition. Sargie and I were lazy all day Sunday. I tried working a bit in the garden, but it was too cold and damp to do much. We managed to sneak a load of laundry out on the line and have it dry before rain began Sunday afternoon.

Applying fertilizer to the blueberries. My experiment appears to have worked. All the southern blueberries made it though the winter buried deep under the insulating snow.
Pentoga Lake is still growing and we now have a nesting pair of mallard ducks attempting to call it home. 
Brutus continues to think he's a Labrador Retriever spending about half his day swimming in the seasonal lake.
It's snowing heavily this morning. Thankfully, I don't think it will be around long... I hope.
After my usual walk on Monday morning, I spent the entire day inside working on the class I'm teaching for this coming summer session. After I change a few dates on the syllabus, it will be ready to go.

The final projects for the current classes have slowed to a drizzle and after this week, I can put this semester to bed. All that will be left is to enter final grades.

Sargie's off today. With the weather as it is, I imagine we'll probably be lazy and enjoy life. It's not easy, but someone has to do it.

After all, a man's work is never done.

So are the tales from Pentoga Road...
