Gettin Ready for Winter

Thought I'd do it early this time. Belt/hoses/antifreeze/oil/filters and tires on vehicles.
Boring but at least I'm ahead of the game...start with dove next weekend and
go from there.

it was 38 this morning at 6 am, but 71 right now. Farmers here don't need an early frost that's for sure. Crops got in late due to wet spring.

Getting ready for winter is making sure I have 5-6 cords of wood split and stacked.
