Weekend Snowfall

Our snowfall on Saturday the 15th measured just about 6 inches, although some of it may have settled by the time Norm took a yardstick to various parts of the yard on Sunday morning. He also shoveled the double driveway but we still didn't get to church on time! We did get out later in the day for our pastor's open house.

The garage is something we really appreciate in a snow storm, after spending more than 30
years digging one or more cars out of the frigid stuff. The bird bath and trash cans look like a collection of strange ice cream cones.




At the front steps, the festive bows on the garland that Norm put out to welcome our visitors was covered in white. By afternoon, streets were quite passable although Saturday night was tricky for drivers. We stayed in until Sunday evening.


Meanwhile inside on a sunny Monday, the Christmas tree glows with white, silver and golden decorations. The snow may be gone by Christmas but we have already had our taste of winter and the solstice is still 4 days away!
