Welcome February! A beautiful Winter's Day!

 In case anyone forgot what Ice Crystals and snow look like, this is our back yard this November morning. Keep in mind this is a color photo, so its not very bright today. This is beautiful to see but a little dicey to walk on! I'm inside for the day!!

I got a call from southern Michigan today, they got 6 or so inches of snow. We got a dusting! Funny how weather all works out. Lynn and I fly to Florida for our "Spring Break " in 17 days. We are going via Baltimore.

We are taking undies, a pillow and snacks in our carry on!

Jeff, what were you thinking??

Also in the not funny department, the rental car for 8 days is costing more than our super air fare! WHAT??

A beautiful winter's Sunday, the Rufous Sided Towhee was here off and on all day. He now scratches in the sunflower seed dish, and takes his time. Bob Patshaw says he probably got separated from his flock, perhaps he was hurt, and he is surviving the winter under our Rhododendron bush. There are gaps in the snow around and in the middle of it, and he goes down inside, back in the myrtle I guess, and is surviving under the snow. I wonder if he will leave in the summer, I've never seen one here in 29 years. I'm guessing he was in his migration when something happened.

I'm enjoying the Mormon Tabernacle Choir for the second time today. They're singing me to bed.


An update on the trip to Florida, it was great, but I changed my ticket and flew back with Lynn as I think my BP med is jizzing up my breathing and heart rhythm, I made it home but had to have an assist all the way, stress test this week. Still, saw my friends and enjoyed the Florida weather, cool or not, we had fun!! Downside is all the traffic, it makes you weary after while. People, where are you going and why so fast? Do you really need to cross 3 lanes to ramp off? Have some Mercy!!

My daughter Lynn was driving and I know for a fact that at least twice, she wanted to pull over, get out and say some really bad words, and walk to the airport! Truth is, she is a wonderful city driver but would just like to be able to glance left or right once in a while! And her Jeff drives, as does my Jim, when we are traveling! We are truly princesses!
