Completed Phase 3 snow relocation, which involves the lower level roof surfaces, as well as the oil filler pipe access and the plow residue left by the city on our nice clean driveway . . .
Got out to the city forest, where snow is welcome. Only skied a mile because of that first-run-of-the-year factor. Excellent surface, which will probably be ruined by rain tomorrow.
Yes, rain. That's the forecast. Dammit.
Which is why I needed to get those roofs shoveled off -- snow soaks up rain like a sponge, adding much weight. With drifts to 3' deep and a house over 150 years old . . .
