    My yearly winter reminder

    For those of you with snow, when it comes time to clean out the coop simply spread a tarp at the door draped over the sill and shovel. The tarp can then be used as a very lightweight toboggan to take the shavings wherever you choose. Wheelbarrows are useless here.
