March Day at the Off-Grid Cabin

March has arrived at the cabin. These are the final days of winter and it's good to just enjoy your time in the north woods. Hang out with me today while I do a quick fix to the snow blower on the tractor and I'll show you what happened to my ATV. Then we'll get some wood in and throw something on the grill at the end of the day.

LONDON, March 14 (Reuters) - Oil prices fell by around $5 a barrel on Monday as investors pinned hopes on diplomatic efforts by Ukraine and Russia to end their conflict, while a surge in COVID-19 cases in China spooked the markets.

Brent was down by $4.67, or 4.1%, at $108.00 a barrel at 1000 GMT, and U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude fell $5.71, or 5.2%, to $103.62 a barrel.

Both contracts have surged since Russia's Feb. 24 invasion of Ukraine and are up roughly 40% for the year to date.
