Sunrise 7:12 Sunset 5:22 Zero degrees and beautifully sunny. Moon waning crescent, 10% of full. Went for a wonderful snowshoe. I'm trying to suck the juice out of this activity as every day the snow cover diminishes. We've had very little snow this year and though flurries are often forecast they don't seem to happen. There is an old wood- birch, apples, crabapples, ash, maples-past our marsh. It's hard to get to in the summer because a stream must be crossed but it's just a little snowshoe hop right now. I found highbush cranberry growing there which is super exciting news as so far I've only found it in two spots. There is also wild grape and an ancient crabapple that must have been loaded with fruit- only the stems remain.
