Wednesday February 10, 2010

The Sunday morning scenery was beautiful. Many churches were closed, but ours wasn’t affected because the snowfall in our area was less than in many other local places.

During the afternoon, I was fascinated as this snow slowly melted and slid to the edge of the roof.

In the process there was a lot of dripping going on.

By evening the snow was so close to the edge of the roof that the icicles were leaning toward the house.

By dark, they were still there – and only slipped off the roof about noon Monday.

My sister, Nancy, and her husband, Marlin, came to watch the Super Bowl – and eat supper. We each provided food – chicken corn soup, sandwiches, pizza dip with nachos, fruit, cheesecake, and cookies.

None of us had strong feelings about who should win, so we were happy for the Saints.

Today – Wednesday, February 10

The next three pictures are for the benefit of our Maine children and grandchildren, and those who are wondering if we received any of the wind and snow that traveled through the northeast today.

I haven’t seen this much snow and wind in many years – and I loved it.
