Thursday, March 5

I had been wanting a real snowfall, and it finally came last Thursday.

By the end of the day we had about 10 inches of new snow.

Since all the birdseed was covered with snow, I put out several suet blocks.

They became quite popular and caused several fights.

Snow creates incredible beauty.

By noon we could barely see the landscape in front of us.

I felt bad for the birds who were searching for food, so put a large plastic platter on our patio table and filled it with birdseed.

It took less than a minute for the seekers to come.

The suet blocks were also popular.

Our back yard.

We were surprised to see our mailman.

Another brave traveler.

By 1 PM the snow had slowed down significantly so Cerwin decided to open our driveway.

By evening there was another few inches of snow, so Cerwin moved it with a shovel.

That looked like fun.

I love a snowy day!

When Cerwin called his mother that evening, she told him that one of the nurses took her out in the snow so she could see and feel it. 🙂

The next time we visited – and that nurse was there, she showed us this picture.

I asked her to send it to me.
