I’m throwing in the towel on greenhouse growing for the year. I’ve got a number of heads of lettuce to harvest today - when I get motivated to suit up and do some more shoveling later. We’ve gotten about 4” so far and more on the way through this afternoon. The heavy, WET stuff. Ugh! Beau has gone into Madison to help shovel out the wealthy ladies of Shorewood Hills. (Good tippers!)

I have lettuces started under lights, as well as some spinach that was already started in 6-packs, but I moved that in last week. Another batch of sprouts will be in the works later today.

It’s like a Snow Cave in the greenhouse - kind of fun, actually.

The birds were convinced they were STARVING, so I cleaned the snow off the feeders and re-filled them, and they’re all happy, now. Had to talk the Beagle into going outside this morning for his ‘Potty Break’ in the snow. He’s such a spoiled brat - but aren’t we all? However, after many years of Army Life, I GREATLY APPRECIATE indoor plumbing, LOL!

Pictures in a bit of our newest addition to the Menagerie - ‘Weber’ (yes, as in grill!), our beef steer.

I laughed a little too hard at this one...
