Well the deer don’t seem to mind. Happy and healthy hanging out behind the house. 11 of em tonight. 
Man that was a nasty cold spell. My wife couldn't get to work Monday due to road conditions and whiteout. Wednesday morning couldn't get either vehicle started and water to tub/shower was froze, pipes are in uninsulated crawlspace.
About 3 pm SUV would finally start. Took all day to get pipes thawed, and cold line was busted. Left charger on SUV battery all night and it barely started this morning. Water pipe was busted between the tub and our outside faucet, so just cut after the tub and threw a sharkbite end cap on it. Will do the full fix once spring gets here.
We use a MrCool Ductless mini split heat/ac system for our main source of heat. When temps get down to about -15 it shuts down to protect the outdoor unit. We have a pellet stove to go with it as backup, but the house was about 56 degrees the last two mornings.
Did not really seem like I had the last 4 days off work. Lol

When I see a weather forecast like that at this time of year, I often refer to this webpage: https://www.canr.msu.edu/uploads/files/PictureTableofFruitFreezeDamageThresholds.pdf

Count me in too!!
As I watch the snow come down this morning (temps in low 30s), I remind myself that a cool spring is less stressful than a warm one. Moderate temps this week should get my trees to the point where killing freezes to the blossoms should be pretty much past. I guess I am also looking for a silver lining to this miserable weather!

I save that picture so I have it one those Springtime late frosts.
Here's video I made that you might find interesting.
