sun was out and it only felt like -14 Celsius, so I went outside to see about getting rid of the ice that has built up where I stand to get into and out of the hot tub…

ice here seems unusual, but could be because I haven’t cleared the snow on my path to the tub every single time it has snowed, lol…

anyway, I’ve slipped a few times so it felt important to clean it up…

that, of course, meant I had to get into the garage to get the ice chopper… but the good news is that now the doorknob has been removed I can get in via the person door again… so I had to shovel to get there…

once I had the chopper it took a while to get rid of most of the ice as the sun doesn’t shine in this area of the garden;-)… handy tool to get the job done…

was careful not to get too close to where the power cord goes… but, it is done and now safe to get in and out of the hot tub…

and I got my exercise for the day…

for weeks now the side door to the garage has been stuck shut… kind of like the doorknob was frozen…

while we were working in the basement, there was lots of garbage which we ended up putting into the garage until the bin was empty… having to go through the side gate and then the main garage door was a pain…

yesterday I talked with my neighbour in the lane and mentioned the problem so today he came by and helped me remove the knob… fairly simple when you know how, lol…

now I will know for next time;-)…

so, a bungee cord will be the fastener for the next while… and, apparently a new door is in the future…
