Up to a toasty 13, headed for a high of 14. Guessers are guessing -11 Tuesday. Making a mighty effort to thaw pipes today, before the bottom really drops out tomorrow. Got 2 places where the trench wasn't filled in yet, still had some work to do there. Built a long narrow fire alongside the pipe, covered with an old piece of tin. First one I did thawed already, got my frost free hydrant flowing again. At least the hydrant didn't freeze, just the place where I had some valves, set down in a piece of culvert pipe.
In other(culinary) news, catfish (store bought) for lunch in a few minutes.
