NICE TO SEE FEBRUARY CHECKING OUT FOR ANOTHER YEAR

Monday's short winter storm was a nasty little bit of business while it lasted.  It dumped about six inches of snow on us then followed that up with freezing rain.  I'm surprised we didn't lose our power.  The winds were just a-howlin through the pine trees.  Today's morning dawned clear and calm and luckily our temperatures had risen overnight so the new snowfall did not freeze up.  It was easily shoveled, but very heavy, and of course I always overdo myself.  But, the nice thing was that at 33F with no wind I was able to be outside without my mitts on.  Bonus:))  With temps to be at or above freezing for the next seven days, we should lose a slightly reasonable whack of snow again.  Nice to see February checking out for another year and just think, a month from now we will all be on the eve of April:)))))

OUR PARK'S SNOWPLOW WAS ON THE JOB FIRST THING THIS MORNING

With no photos taken again today, I had to slip out late this afternoon for a walk around the yard to see what I could find.  And how nice this evening to end our day under sunny skies:))))))
