Beast from the east ", sounds like an apt term !! Old man winter isn't finished with us yet !

I have heard about this bad storm and wish you the best. Use the snow and pile around pond for better insulative value. Snow really helps keep my greenhouse much wamer in exteme cold too.

It's probably warmer at the North pole, now the Siberian Express has gone on tour

Yes @Dave 54 I did read that and it's awful. I was just hoping the rest would be ok. Hope you sure can figure out what happened that caused the others to die.

 

[Dave 54]

We have been working on it @j.w.
