GETTING READY FOR WINTER!!!

Last night on the way home from work it rained/sleeted hard on Sherman Hill! So today I "winterizer" the Eberhart residence.. I moved all but 2 flower boxes (they still hadn't froze even though it got to 30 deg last night with a heavy frost on the windshields) and I blew out the water hoses and put them away in the shed..

We have been using the wood stove burning "rail tops" as it gets chilly when the sun sets here in the High desert plains of Laramie..

Got the windshield snow blade and scrapers in the vehicles so all we need is for old man winter to rear it's ugly head and last till FOREVER!!

Leaves on the trees have all but fell off with still a whole bunch of "hanger's on" waiting for me to put the mulching mower away for the winter!! The flowering crab apple tree leaves still haven''t fell off so they must not of felt the effects of the cold but when it does the leaves curl up and fall off rather late in the fall season..

All we can do now is hunker down and pray for spring!!

But we have REX in the garage ready to 'rock & roll'..
