Battening Down the Hatches
One of the Utah things that has taken some getting used to is that every fall you must spend several Saturdays battening down the hatches before the first winter storm. While we grew up here, we were blissfully irresponsible sponges (aka teenagers/non-married young adults) living off the goodness of our parents then. In all of our lives until now, we have never been responsible adults in a winter climate. Well, it is a lot of work, darn it. So today marked the second (of likely three) Saturdays that we have spent cleaning the yard, planting bulbs, preparing the house and the yard for snow, etc. Today was rake the leaves day.
