warm today. it started out cols but ended up in the high 30s. Sigh. I was hoping for another couple weeks of sub freezing temps to keep the dead heads frozen. we'll see what tomorrow brings.

We decided today that me and Jay would go east and leave the boys in charge of the fort while were gone. They've proven themselves trustworthy and able. were pretty much packed and ready to go, but we want to see if the cold weather holds or not. if not we have to wait until all the snow is melted. i dont want to deal with mud and the possibility of getting stuck besides the dead heads.
