Slow Melt

We're still looking at temperatures hovering just above freezing during the day, and dipping well below at night. The main roads are dry, but our driveways are still covered with a powdery snow.  We've had several visitors (deer) crisscrossing the property in the wee hours, nibbling at some of my trees, and the chicken wire wraps don't seem to discourage them much. Hoping that this winter pruning will inspire new growth when the weather begins to warm up in a couple of months - that what-doesn't-kill-you-makes-stronger kind of thing. The moon's waxing gibbous, and has already risen here in the mid-afternoon, hovering over Mt. Gunnison.
