I now know exactly what you need to do for the next storm!!! This is what a friend of mine did yesterday. Said he had to get his mind off of the 4+ inches of snow that was coming. He then said it sort of worked because what snow we got started melting today really fast and then he realized he forgot to put the mower away!
It is 63 degrees here and the lawn mowers are running! I need to charge mine so that I can mow the grass tomorrow. It is getting quite tall and lushly green now.
The Plums and Almonds are about to bloom too. Next weekend is the Capay Valley Almond Festival.
Yesterday I drove through some petals from a blooming tree. That is as close to snow as we get here.
Sadly, I have to take my allergy pills all year long.
I'm certain I'm weighing the idea of taking allergy pills quite seriously against this winter crap. I don't even have allergies, and I'm half-interested in signing on just to be rid of the cold!

I use the same netting, but with 2"x2" sticks with peeled soup cans to hold it all up, and 5' 2" x 4" fencing for the perimeters of all 15 runs...the full OUTSIDE perimeter is 4' climb-roof with a string of hot wire atop it.
And rams. Mean rams who really need a date. They encircle the hot wire, with more hot wire on their fencing. I have been considering moats w/piranha and a further perimeter of cougars, but that seemed like a bit much.

Well it's time for this Old Folk...to go to bed. 5:00 comes really early. I also have my bee class tomorrow night after work so it will be a really long day. I am so looking forward to the class too!. Have a great night all. Rest as if you were small again.

Here is a rough draft of the breeding pens I thought up? I told DH I want them all to be covered with a tin roof.
Please give me some feed back or suggestions as I am still new to all this.
I used the idea ChickenCanoe gave me for a breeze way for feed and water and nest boxes.
Chick - I hat to ask, but what are the dimensions? I am on my phone (Internet is down) and can't read anything in your pic. It looks very similar to mine.
