Winter comes to Bradford County
Last Tuesday, October 28, the northern counties of Pennsylvania had something of a freak snowstorm. Some areas received 6 inches plus. By the time we arrived Saturday evening all but some small patches in the woods were gone.
We spent three nights in the cold north woods (the temperature at the cabin runs, on average 6 to 10 degrees lower then Schaefferstown and a least a couple degrees lower then surrounding reporting stations). It's location allows cooler air to drift down from the nearby mountains on nights with little or no wind. It's also 1600 feet higher on elevation. As a general rule, you can reduce the temperature by 3 degrees for every 1000 foot increase in elevation.
I'm not so sure about these slippers in the woods during hunting season!!
The guys from BGE Construction in Dushore have started the next round of cabin enhancements.
A new set of steps have been added and repairs to the long-neglected porch roof are underway!
