We awoke on Christmas morning around 7a.m. to blowing snow, and it didn't let up until about 9:30 p.m. We were just happy we didn't have to go any place, but felt very snug celebrating Christmas in our house. The report was from 12 to 20" of snow. (I think we got the 20") The south windows were coated over with the blowing snow, and it was deep enough to go inside the big boots, not stay on the outside. Beautiful this morning! Some big animal invaded the yard in the night - we live near Creamery Hollow, and sometimes the deer, and even a moose or two have been known to invade, being driven by the snow. When you see the blue skies and the glittering snow the morning after, it makes one happy to be alive.
The sundial wears an even bigger cap.
Ron puts a piece of plywood on the little picnic table on the patio, scrapes off as much snow as he can, and spreads a banquet for the little birds. Sometimes the pesky doves come, and occasionally a bold magpie shows up, but we discourage him from the feed.
