   The platform for the furnace in the new greenhouse is done.  The guys were pleased that they were able to build a sturdy platform with lumber we had on hand.  The electrician stopped by last night to say he would run power to the greenhouse this weekend.

   Once the plants go out to the greenhouse the laundry room starts attracting "stuff".  Some important stuff like all the jugs of liquid fertilizer for the 2025 greenhouse season.  It can't freeze.  Some stuff went to the dumpster, there is a box  for Goodwill.  Enough "stuff" was moved around, gotten rid of or put where it belonged so that Bekah can easily get to germination shelves to care for the seedlings.  The shelves are filling up.  Monday she will start seeds that need warmer temperatures to germinate.  There is a desk with lights over it for them in the front room next to the pellet stove.  The thermostat on the new stove will make keeping them at the right temperature so much easier.

    To those of you here in the north country please drive with care.  Lack of respect for winter roads have caused several fender benders and far too many serious accidents the last few days.  Lots of snow flurries in the forecast means roads may not be good.  May God be with you, Sally
