It's cold as hell, but the setting moon was beautiful.

Good news - our leaky basement is finally fixed. What you are looking at here is all the water our basement specialist had to drain off before he could dig and install the sump pump. Since it was INSANELY cold, it formed a miniature polar cap on our driveway.

Actually, it's not even that good. What he drained off before and during digging was all poured out back. That's what drained off after the pump was installed. Now I have to figure out why that drain isn't working, so we can get rid of the skating rink.

I got out there and removed most of it. It was more than 3" thick in some places. I think I've finally managed to clear the drain above it so it won't do that again.
