The Blizzard of '14

March weather does not seem to want to let go.  Weeks of 'below normal' temperatures  (meaning, -10 below, -16 below over night) interspersed with the rare above freezing day has made for a wild ride.  We have not yet put up our sap buckets, and I am wondering if we will even have much of a season.

Over March 12-13th, we had the wildest weather of the year, as a significant storm system dumped at least 24" of new snow on our farm.  I had the unfortunate privileged of  driving to Albany, NY for a GE Healthcare conference during the 'weather event', and driving was definitely NOT FUN.  Back at home, the farm is inundated with snow, but at least the kids are having fun:
