This really has nothing to do with living off-grid, except every once in awhile it's nice to get away!
First of all, don't be home when a snowstorm is in the forecast in early spring.
Secondly, don't return home until the snow has all melted. Problem solved!
However, thirdly, go somewhere warm where you can enjoy your time away from the cold winter.
Unfortunately I only got two out of the three. Check the weather forecast to see how large an area the storm is going to affect and plan accordingly. I tried. I checked the weather forecast hourly and daily, but it was never correct.
I woke up to 31degree temperatures and a snowstorm in Nashville, drove to Chattanooga and experienced sleet - but had great barbecue. Continued south to Atlanta and hit rain so headed to Savannah for cloudy, windy, cooler than normal temperatures. That was the best I could do. I need to mention that it was cold enough to get out the down sleeping bag, wear a down jacket and scarf nearly every day! I kind of missed my toasty warm house with heated floors, snow or no snow.
So I returned to this:
It is spring, I finished the grape pruning, the lilacs are budding and the grass is turning a vibrant green. And so another season begins...
