The calm before the snow yesterday allowed me to get a bit of shoveling done in preparation. It ended up another few inches overnight so nothing too crazy. Kept pumping out the #HSW parts all day as I have numerous places I want to install the panels to help with better organizing around the house. The #4nations US v Canada game was the best start to a hockey game EVER! 3 fights in the first 9 seconds... Hands down the best start ever. #homesteading #3dprinting #diystr #hive #peakd #dailyblog

If this #4nations USvCAN game doesn't have you amped, you hate #hockey! HOLY SHIT was that the BEST start to a game EVER!

Actual snow. Managed about 2 inches over the day yesterday and we are looking at more tonight. It's only taken all winter for us to get a meaningful amount to stick around. The warmer temps next week may not allow it to stay though. The HSW panels are superb and I'm finding spots all over the house to utilize them. The bathroom ones are the best since the bathrrom is quite small so this gets things onto the wall and off the flat surfaces. The bathroom has a whole different feel now with the organization. #homesteading #3dprinting #diy #hive #peakd #dailyblog

Our last frigid morning yesterday, it's 30 degrees warmer this morning. Of course the animal waters were in need of filling and the line was not thawing at the coop. I figured out to fill a pair of half barrels in the bed of my truck and drove them over to the troughs. WAY WAY easier than other options. #WorkSmarterNotHarder. There is something weird at Norfolk Naval yard, a pair of submerged ships on the aft of a submarine... WTF!? #4nationshockey is killer.

Our week of actual winter is coming to an end as the snow/rain is inbound htis weekend. The creek has some really nice ice built up in it though thanks to the sub zero temps. Part of the creek is a glass smooth sheet of ice that almost mandates skates to move on it. Modding my K1C more and swapped the hinges out for the full opening geared ones which makes life much easier and safer for the door and printer. I DID fight with the damn thing for hours trying to get teh damn filament to feed correct after the first few layers. I figureed it out eventually. 4 Nations hockey started with a great game and hopefully they are all as competitive, which they should be considering it's the best players in the world. #homesteading #3dprinting #diy #hive #peakd #dailyblog

The freeze persists, but only another day or two, then it will be raining by Sunday, and I'd bet the end of Winter. I mean the creek can't even freeze over despite the sub zero temps, so I've got the hunch we are heading for the thaw. Spent the day keeping hte printer going and the fireplace then took the boys to school skate night in the evening. Went out to eat for my hatching day while they skated. #homesteading #3dprinting #diy #bday #hive #peakd #dailyblog

DARPA Program Plans to Build Massive Structures in Orbit with Paradigm-Shifting Technology

Our few days of the arctic cold are doing a good job of freezing over the creek though the ice dam allowed the water to flow over the ice which turned it to slush yesterday. This morning it is below zero so should have frozen it more solid. The birds aren't enjoying the cold and spend the entire day following what little sunlight there is around the farm. Just a few more days then it will warm back up and we will be getting rain.... again. #3dprinting #homesteading #diy #hive #peakd #dailyblog

We are in the cold part of Winter now, finally. It took it's sweet damn time. 10F yesterday morning and 0F this morning. We're looking at negative temps the next nights. Honeycomb Storage Walls are badass and with them installed in the bathroom the sink area is now WAY nicer, organized, and easier to keep cleaned. I'm going to keep the printer pushing the panels out as I have places all over the house that I want them. #homesteading #3dprinting #diy #hive #peakd #dailyblog

More snow yesterday but it didn't add much to our meager total. I got the HSW wall panels and parts #3dprinted over the day and will install the bathroom setup today. It will help get stuff off the sink and give us more space. The panels next to my computer have seriously helped clean my desk up. SO HAPPY WATCHING #DOGE!

The birds all huddled in the swaths of sunshine yesterday to warm themselves. It was warm enough to start melting the snow but they acted like it was 10 below. It was a fun day watching the #DOGE actions streaming across my feeds and I am super happy to see the underbelly being ripped open in the gubbermint. My biggest wish is treason charges brought against numerous people and massive examples made of them. #homesteading #3dp #hive #peakd #dailyblog

THIS IS WHAT I HAVE DREAMED OF! Actual audits of these untouchable groups and agencies is bringing out the truth, the tip of the depths of corruption/treason/out right mass murder.
