Happy Boxing Day
It's snowing here in Westmont...what a surprise, huh? Should stop around 5PM today, but still...it would have been better if this happened yesterday when we were staying at home. Oh, well, I guess I'll go snowblow the driveway in a little while. Have some errands to do.
Hard to believe that we're approaching the "end of the decade." Wow, 10 years ago we were all waiting for the global disaster that was Y2K...remember that? And it fizzled...and was a precursor o… Continue

Wait a minute!!!! SNOW?????
Really, it's not that surprising. We've been here 15 years and we can get snow all the way through May, so this isn't so surprising. And with the temps pretty warm, it should melt soon....please...
When my camera battery charges, I'll post some pics. Of course, it's the heavy, wet snow we get in the Spring...yeah, it is Spring...and is a pain to shovel. I'm lucky, I have a snowblower. Really the best investment around h… Continue
