There's snow end ...

Saturday night, Tom grilled chick-a-bobs, a delightful taste treat. This is what the deck looked like at that time.


As you can see, there is snow on the ground, but the deck was clear


and Cassidy was out sniffing the planters for obscure feline reasons of her own.

Meanwhile, out front the sidewalk, front entrance and drive were nice and clear





The snow began to fall around 8:30 Sunday morning, and by 11:00 this was the way things were looking. The deck rail had about two inches of fresh snow by then.





As often happens, the predicted snowlocaust (or snowmageddon) did not materialize. We wound up with maybe four inches of snow before it warmed up and turned to sleet, beating the snow down and making the roads too icy for Tom to risk trying to get to the railroad.

So here it is, Monday morning and Tom has gone to the railroad. I am getting ready to head into work. Roads are messy but doable. We may get some more snow showers later in the week, but life in Wisconsin goes on.

Oh, and Happy Presidents Day!
