Since I've been back to the Chatanika valley the over night temps. have been dipping down into the 20's. With the cold weather closing in, after a few cups of coffee when I wake up, I've been cutting and spitting wood for a few hours every day. The other half of the day I've been doing work on the cabin. Yesterday I started repairing the perma-chink on the inside of the cabin and today I began applying perma-chink in between the logs on the outside of the cabin. That with the spray foam I have applied in the wide cracks betwwen the logs should seal it up tight and prevent some of the cold from seaping in.
I took a picture of the slough at about 9:30 this morning, as you can see it's starting to ice over. Won't be too long before the lake and the slough freeze completly.
I am not ready for ice yet, but it sounds like you are :) My car received hail damage our first night back from Jamaica and that was smack in the face enough for reality. It was so much fun to see you and wished we would have had more time to hang out. I lok forward to keeping up with your blog again and will talk to you soon! Xxoo - Sarah
