The Snow That Didn’t Amount To Much

But, Oh, the Wind!

Monday, December 27

 On Sunday evening we had a dusting of snow, and by predictions could have three to five inches by morning.

But by appearances in the morning, I  don’t think it snowed at all overnight.

There was just enough snow to notice footprints of critters that had been near our house over night. This print is probably that of a cat.

There were lots of little bird tracks near the bird feeders – mostly from early this morning when they came looking for breakfast.

And because there are lots of humans in our house right now, there were people tracks in the driveway.

Though we didn’t get much snow, we could hear the wind howling around the house all day long – making us thankful for a nice warm place to live with lots of activity going on in preparation for our family Christmas supper.
