Dear All,        Apr 6, 2007
    In a normal winter here, with snow cover for most of the period from 
late Dec to end of March, any soil that is frozen early on tends to thaw 
fairly rapidly under the snow.

    I brought in some wood yesterday and was surprised to see that the 
newly exposed runners were still frozen solid to the ground. Not a good 
winter to be a soil animal that depends upon heat from below to keep warm.

Yt, Dave Webster, Kentville
