Finishing up hanging lights outside the Birch Ridge Inn

Finishing up hanging lights outside the Birch Ridge Inn

Yesterdays snow storm unfortunately ended as a cold NCP before clearing the area early this morning. Total snow accumulation at the snow stake, after compression and settling is 3 inches, bring the stake up to 6 1/4 inches. It's hard to fathom as the ground has been white for a few days, by 6 inches of snow on the ground is actually quite good going into the Thanksgivin Holiday

Today was a clean up day around the inn to get ready for Thanksgiving. In addition to cleaning up outside after the snow storm, I finished hanging the outside lights around the inn. We had a light service come to the inn a few weeks ago to hang lights on the outside of the big A Frames in front of the inn. Mary and I take care of all of the other exterior lighting (as we don't need a cherry picker to reach it!). Todays task was very simple....drape a small pine tree on the Killington Road with Christmas lights, and finish putting lights on the railing on the front porch. Temperatures were about freezing, so it was not a bad day to work outside....so it goes.

Where ever you may be this holday weekend, enjoy....be happy...give thanks...and think snow!
