A Bit of Snow

By Vickilane

Tuesday--Not much of a snow but it's cold-- temp in the low twenties and dropping. John headed out to take stuff for the dumpsters and recycling and found our road quite icy. He slid to the lower place and decided not to go farther. So he left the truck down there and walked up.

But the critters are fed; the water is dripping (to keep the pipes from freezing;) we have wood and fuel oil; and are reasonably warm inside.

County schools are closed.

It's always an uneasy time with cold weather--waiting for the water to freeze and/or the power to go off. But we've dealt with these things many times (oh, that blizzard of '93, aka The Storm of the Century.) This is just a little snow. And the sun actually came out around four!
