1. Increased stocks of stored foods (every trip to the store).
2. Reviewed old Intel, dug up new Intel. (March does not look good to me, updated my OPS Boss).
3. Reviewed contingency plans (no updates needed).
4. Purchased some new survival equipment (small stuff).
5. Repaired small items around the home.

You just do it. To love Vermont, you have to be a little crazy or you spend your entire time whining that isn't like someplace else and having people tell you, with varying degrees of politness, to "go back there". :P

Cut up more of the trees that got wiped out by the ice storm for firewood in the next couple years.

Started digging up beds in the garden. First priority is to spread out Jerusalem Artichokes as far as they will reach.

Got a few ricks of Oak drying from all the Oklahoma ice storms. You would be surprised how happy folks are to see you show up with a truck and a chain saw. Cut another rick of Pecan. All with my new Poulan Pro 18" chain saw. No tool chain tighting is the way to go.

Cleaned out the garage, made sure all rechargables are charging. It's hard to organize in dis-organization.
