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.
