Well the winter continues to amaze. It hasn't snowed for the last 5 days. It got a bit warmer over the past weekend, almost 30. However, last night, Feb. 3, it was -10 and they are talking about -10 to -20 tonight. But again, no snow.

My perspective about the winter is interesting, at least to me. Here we are in the beginning of February and I feel like we are approaching the end of winter. Everyone says March can bring a lot of snow, but my feeling is in March how long can the snow last. That last comment reminds me of the Civil War General who said, " they'll never hit us from...." We are 3 weeks from March when if it snows it will be a short term inconvenience. By then it has to begin to warm up every once in awhile to melt some snow. May make getting out of the driveway a bit tough, but heh just one more challenge.

The pictures hopefully give you a feel for how much snow we've had. And much of it has settled. Beautiful on days like this, Jan. 31.
