I don't mill in the winter, for many reasons. For one I don't like to fight the snow. I went Outback to fire up the grill and cook a burger this Evening as the sun was out and the temp was reasonable burger cooking weather.

As I walked past the pole barn my eyes where drawn to the pile :)

We have 3 days of warmth and rain starting tonight so maybe mother nature will take care of much of it. But I believe it is suppose to go back to the 30's for a while.

This is the first year I actually have logs ready to go and a cut list this early. Luckily its not a big list, just some Post, roof rafters, and such.

I had expected it to slid down this week but was surprised that it came down today.

P.S. The burger was fantastic, 6-7 oz Med rare with Swiss Cheese 8) 8)

Its across from the mill. which makes it hard to just blow the snow away from the mill.

I'll have to take a pic from the driveway to include all the building I have nestled together.
