    Watering and keeping the temperature in the greenhouse where it should be was the only greenhouse work yesterday.  Long breaks of sun mean more fans going.  The exhaust fan is on a thermostat but they have to be careful this time of the year.  It will pull smoke out of the wood stove if there isn't enough ventilation.  But when the clouds cover the sun and a cold breeze blows through the propane furnace has to work to keep the greenhouse warm enough if there is too much ventilation. It would be easier to not use the wood stove but propane is expensive.

  I went to town yesterday and got my truck washed.  All winter salt and mud had been building up underneath.  I got a few things at Sam's.  Bekah and Maegin went to town too.  Usually we can combine trips but that didn't work yesterday.  No school yesterday so Jay, Darel and Heather took the kids hiking.  Back to greenhouse work and house cleaning today.  With the warm forecast the rest of the snow will be gone in the blueberry patch.  The huge sledding pile won't be gone but the rest of the yard will be bare.  There is more yard cleanup  than usual because of that early December storm.

   May your day be blessed, Sally
