So yeah, it snowed a lot. Makes for some pretty lousy days for the solar panels. On the plus side, though, my water cistern is now completely full. Provided that my usage doesn't go up, I should have enough water now to last me until April. So, yay for that. On to winter wonderland pictures!
This is what I saw out my front door - first one is straight ahead, second is turning my head to the left.


Here's a little further up the drive:

And some images of the tiny house taken from the banks of the pond, first from the near side, then from the far side:


Next we have Barney's favorite part of the property, the tire pile. I found about 30 tires riddled about the property (more if you count tractor tires stacked near the front) so I gathered them together into a pile for now. Later I may ram some dirt into them Earthship-style, but for now they amuse the pooch.


Of course, playing in tires all day can wear a mutt out.

So, that's it for now. Like I said, it's been gloomy, so I've been in power conservation mode more often than I'd like. I plan on rigging up a generator to top off my batteries, but for now I'm just going to have to keep it short.
