Country Living

Got shoveled out -- I'm guessing about eight inches of fluffy stuff. It was a warm, pretty morning, really, very, very quiet, and the snow coming down just enough to be decorative. I cleaned off both cars, and came back inside for breakfast and coffee before trying to see if I could drive the little green Subaru through the ice berm left by the town plow.

Happily, the plow-guy came while I was getting breakfast; I ran out, moved the cars, he did his thing; I re-established the cars, finished breakfast, and off to work I went. First car into the parking lot; made tracks going in; got to invent a parking place as my prize. Yay, prize.

The grounds folks at the college are doing a really good job of keeping the sidewalks walkable this year; I think there's a new snowplower in the mix that's really making a difference. Go, grounds crew; you rock!

So, anyway, I'm in; my gloves and hat are on the radiator, and will -- probably -- be dry by the time I go home.

I can haz nap nao?

In Maine, the golden-blue sky with never a cloud to be seen that looks so inviting and warm? Is usually cold enough to do damage in the middle of winter. People do say to each other, "I wish it would warm up and snow."

This morning it was +/- 30F/-1C, which is plenty warm for winter. The other week we had a clear, sunny day where the temp was -2F/-18C.
