Spring is on the way, moved into the Hole In The Wall Recreational Area to do some preliminary work after I finished plowing the three acres. However, I did see the first sign of spring, a trailer load of firewood waiting to be unloaded. Now don't you guys feel bad, I unloaded it by myself in the cold and snow but your comfort next summer is very important to me. Worked out a deal with our "local wood dealer" . He will cut the wood, load it and deliver it to the HITW, all I need to do is unload. He said we can expect two shipments per week, I figured at that rate by spring we will have enough wood for two years, at least! While poking around the site, I did note that "Butch" and Sundance" must be wintering in the area, little tracks all over the place. I also saw the sign of the rabbit, so perhaps we have a new guest. I did see another sign, however, that will have to wait for another posting on the dedicated site since I just noticed I once again got on the wrong site for this posting. I figure that once the moose do move down and discover that the hole is being kept plowed, it could be a great area for them to "winter". Perhaps a couple bales of hay and a salt block accidentally stowed in the area may help.

I did mentally prepare a "To Do List" for spring, there is allot of work to get done in time for the annual rendezvous. I will wait to see if you can spot some the work that will be required once you have viewed the pictures.
