Blog Post #7373: A Quiet Snowy Day.

For the third day in a row, I stayed home. That's unusual for me because I get restless and like to get out, but the roads were treacherous for two days and still slick today. Frank went out this morning to see the doctor and reported that shady sections of the roads are still icy. (He's okay; Dr. Spriggs thinks his symptoms are due to allergy.)


I put on my boots this afternoon, replenished the birdfeeders, and walked out by that bench. Here we see the view looking west toward the dam. The lake is partially iced over.

 This picture with a reflection of lights on the window is from yesterday. 

I want to share with the flowers I got for my birthday, which was Tuesday. 



Stay safe and have a pleasant weekend!
