It’s today that the workmen come to drill a hole in the rock ledge of the mountaintop for that satellite Internet antenna.

We did visit the new house yesterday. It’s perched on the first ridge of the Appalachians. The mountaintop is quite narrow, and one can see into both Virginia and West Virginia even from the first floor of the house. It was cold up there. We are going to get snowed in for sure this winter.

The previous owners left us a John Deere lawn tractor with a snow plow attachment. But there are two problems: I have no idea how to attach it, and I can see no way to get that tractor with plow attached through either of two fence gates into the driveway to plow.
