The Hogsty

Morning. 35 degrees with the wind whipping along at 25 mph. I'm not inclined to go rake leaves, and I like raking leaves.

Morning. Sunny, 28 degrees, wind is supposed to pick up considerably later today.

Morning. 44 degrees. Cloudy. Showers expected.

Afternoon. Sunny, 46 degrees, windy with gusts over 50 mph. Yep. Must be November.

Morning. 37 degrees and the air is moving.

Morning. 24 degrees, mxed clouds and sun. The air is moving, but not much. Couple of nights ago, it was strong enough to tear some more limbs down.

Evening. It was a long, busy day. Early bedtime sounds good.

45 degrees going for a low of 29 later tonight.

Morning. 30 degrees and maybe an inch of snow on the ground.

Morning. Chance of rain this afternoon.

Morning for another fifteen minutes. Sunny, 62 degrees, 20 mph wind. I'd go out and rake leaves except I have a meeting at 1:00. I am seriously considering giving up all activities that require meeting attendance.

Thank you, veterans everywhere.

Morning. 47 degrees, sunny, and 25 mph wind.

Morning. 36 degrees and raining off and on.

Morning. How can we already be more than a week into November? Twenty degrees, sunny, and still.

Our neighbor has chickens, from whence our eggs come. I hadn't even thought about bird flu endangering them. I like those birds, even Roaster the Rooster, who is one mean little bastard.

Morning. It's a sunny 14 degrees with a predicted high of 41.

Morning. 26 degrees. Cloudy. Snow on the ground. More flurries possible. Winter took a little longer than usual to arrive, but now that it's here, it apparently intends to stay for a while.

Morning. 36 degrees, chance of snow showers. We had some wind last night, ja, you betcha. Heard a big branch off the elm tree hit the roof after we'd gone to bed. Sigh. We had that tree pruned a few years ago, but I'm afraid we're approaching the time it needs to be cut down before it falls on us. I...

Morning. Cloudy. 36 degrees. May creep as high as 40.

Morning. Cloudy, 39 degrees and not supposed to get more than a few degrees higher. Winter took a while to get here, but looks like it intends to stay.

My husband is in charge of clocks. It avoids the possibility of clocks getting reset twice. Yes, that happened once. It was... inconvenient.

Good morning, gentlemen. We still have snow on the ground, but bare patches are appearing in the yard. When the snow fell, many trees still had leaves and it was a heavy, wet snow. Now there are branches down all over town. We lost a couple of limbs off a couple of poplar trees, but they missed the ...

Morning. 34 degrees, high of 44 expected. The snow that melted yesterday created skating rinks everywhere last night. I'll give the sun a couple of hours to work, then I need to get out of the house for a while. Ten hours of reading and editing yesterday has left me feeling like I need to run scream...

Good evening, trick or treaters. Ten hour day of editing. Still have snow on the ground. 37 degrees,

Update: my husband measured the snow atop the doghouse which is our best gauge. The final total: fourteen inches. He's out with the snowblower. I'm headed out to knock snow off treebranches.

Winter...

Morning. 31 degrees, heavy clouds.

Don't worry, Tom. We got enough heavy white stuff for us and Thermopolis, too. I'll bet there's eight inches sitting on our patio ledge even after it compressed under its own weight. Yeah, looks like solid winter out there today.

Morning. 35 degrees and snowing. Supposed to continue through tomorrow morning.

Morning. 61 degrees and windy as heck. Glad the main part of the yard work is done. I'm thinking maybe the last plum trees might wait for pruning until early spring. Cutting down big branches by myself in a brisk wind might not be the smartest activity I could pursue.

Morning. 39 degrees. High in upper 60s and lower 70s until Tuesday when winter comes to visit. We have had such a gorgeous October, at least a couple extra weeks of perfect autumn than we usually get before snow falls hard and spoils it.

Morning. 30 degrees. Seventies predicted for the weekend. Snow predicted for Tuesday.

What's a Wyoming winter without a glacier in the back yard?

Morning. 45 degrees. High will only be in the fifties. Bit of a sprinkle here, too.

Morning. Currently 42 degrees and still. My husband was making noises about draining the hoses this morning. It froze last night, but today it will be seventy and I need another hour or two of planting iris before he can take the hose. Tomorrow will be in the fifties, but then looks like we'll have ...

I thought you were in Arizona, Mike, where the time never changes. So much for my memory, hmm?

Morning. How can it already be October 21st???

54 degrees. High of 70 predicted. More yardwork on the menu for today.

Morning. 34 degrees.

Today is the last day my daughter, granddaughter, and son in law will be with us. Tomorrow they head off to their new life in Washington via Yellowstone and Glacier, depending on the weather. It's going to be awfully quiet and lonesome around here.

Morning. Sunny, 56 degrees after cold fog this morning. As soon as the ground dries up a bit, I'm headed out to move rosebushes and relocate iris.

Morning. 34 degrees, very wet outside. If it snowed, it didn't stick. Never the less, it appears the pre-school trip to the corn maze and farm will still take place later this morning. Being less fond of mud than I might be, I'd opt to take my granddaughter to an indoor facility if this wasn't her l...

Afternoon, just barely. Overcast, 66 degrees, and not likely to go higher. Rain after 3, snow tomorrow. Sigh. I hate to see the end of the golden part of October. The foliage is never quite as brilliant after snow.

Still morning. 73 degrees and breezy. Been out trying to get the yard work done in case the weather breaks on Friday as predicted.

Morning... but just barely. 63 degrees, high to be in the 70s. Grandson still sleeping with the window open and the fan running in the window. He thinks sleeping under a heavy comforter in a freezing room is mighty fine.

Cold this morning. 37 degrees and sunny. Started out for a walk and came home to put on more clothes. Ugh. Shoes instead of sandals. Transitioning is hard.

No, they didn't. They were too far north. This one obviously isn't navigable, but they'd probably have liked to have been it anyway.

Thought about Tom when I saw this, but other folks might be interested, too.

Morning. 51 degrees, headed for a high of 70. Sunny and still.

Morning. 60 degrees here at the foot of the mountain with sunshine and smoke. Weather is supposed to break on Friday, but we'll see.

Morning.Smoky. 57 degrees. The only time rain is predicted over the next ten days is next Friday when my granddaughter's preschool class is set to go to the corn maze. Since that is my last chance to take her on an outing for many months, it's almost a guarantee of rain. Glad you got the med situati...

Morning. 50 degrees, high around 80. Smoke was terrible yesterday. I haven't gone out this morning, but suspect it hasn't improved since my eyes feel grainy and dry even inside the house.

Morning. Smoky and 58 degrees, going for a high of 80. The heater kicked on last night for the first time this year. It is the 9th of October and the heater is just now coming on. Weird. Everything is gold right now and leaves are falling. Another couple of weeks, and we'll be headed out of Golden O...

It's daylight in the swamp. 42 degrees, sunny, smoky, and still. It's bulb planting day at my house. I remembered to water the site last night so perhaps I won't break the shovel trying to dig holes. Good ol' bentonite clay...

BTW......what's it feel like to be a young'un?

I don't remember...

Morning. It's more smoky or less smoky depending on the moment, but definitely still smoky. We could use a nice big October blizzard in northcentral Wyoming, but I don't think that's happeneing any time soon. Currently 69 degrees and still.

This morning it is 41 degrees and smoky as heck. We've got two fire just west of us, but I think most of the smoke is coming from the one up by Dayton on the Montana border. It's a monster. https://cowboystatedaily.com/2024/10/05/as-elk-fire-rages-dayton-watches-while-mountain-above-just-glowing-ora...

Afternoon. Smoky as heck. 72 degrees.
